I want to feel your hand
I need to feel your touch
I'm lost
I have fallen
I fear you have not
My imagination runs wild
Who and where you're at
Not with me
Take me back in time
I Lo..Lo..Lo...I can't say it
It is I who is scared
Petrified
I will be the one to ruin
Push it away
Until those words can fall from my lips
Without hesitation
Without fear of rejection
Until that day
Know I do, so hold me close
Do not say those words
Show me every chance
So when I can
When I can let myself be
I can say those words
And with full yes, unadulterated surety
Hear them from you to me
I know where my soul lays, but my heart will not yet follow. It has been beaten and bruised. Stepped on and used. Wait for me if you will. I pray you do....
