Winding
I tell myself
I love you
I convince myself I do
I tell myself
I need you
We know its far from true
You brush my
Face with a tender touch
I do the same but its not much
You brush my
Lips with true loves touch
But your love for me is just a clutch
My love for him
Is strong and binding
That's why I keep my feelings hiding
My love for him
Is a forever binding
And now my life is always winding
I love you
I convince myself I do
I tell myself
I need you
We know its far from true
You brush my
Face with a tender touch
I do the same but its not much
You brush my
Lips with true loves touch
But your love for me is just a clutch
My love for him
Is strong and binding
That's why I keep my feelings hiding
My love for him
Is a forever binding
And now my life is always winding

I really love this. Very solid writing. Your usage of repetition for each separate stanza is remarkably powerful. For me, personally, I find rhyming to be clichéd, but in this case, it seriously works to your advantage. Remarkably good work.
