As I have watched the dew satisfy the land
Or the many times you brushed over my hand
I stand amongst the trees in a dreadful fear
Wondering why I try to get so near

The thick fog of morning clouds my mind
The fires of the morning sun light a path I may never find
I spare only a glance away from the wonder
Only when my peace is torn asunder

The entire world and all of its beauty
Can not keep my mind from going off duty
The breath of air and scent of flowers
Can not stop the frightful way my mind cowers
By now you must know how I feel
You know I how much I care
You know what I really want
I know you can see that

I don't know why I waited so long
Just one second is all it takes
But I've wasted so many long years
Years that could have meant so much more

I can no longer get a nice welcome home
I will be stranded and strained
Trying to resist will take incredible strength
For your sake and mine I can't

The possibility is scary
You know I want it to end
The fear and pain we both share
I can see it in your eyes

I know you aren't alright
Please let me see into you
Pull me in please
Pull me into the darkness

I will share what you have
You know that I need it
I never left this other world
The dark one I was immersed in

It's been many years now
And I don't know how much more I can take
I will be there in the darkness
Waiting to take your hand

I will never leave
I belong in this nothingness
I will stay here
And I will wait for you

You know what I want
We both know it
I wish we didn't pretend I don't feel
I wish we could feel what I do
together

— The End —
