It’s hard to watch as someone is hurting and in pain.
But it’s far worse for them to have to do it alone or in vain.
For the path of unfamiliarity is empty and perhaps without a cause.
As it may be threatening without a guide as you might get lost.
But if someone comes in and takes your hand.
It’s much easier to get going if you have a plan.
For knowing someone is there, watching out so you don’t fall.
Makes this scary lonely journey not so scary or lonely at all.
It’s so hard to be so far away,
not knowing what you’re going though.
Some barriers keep me seperated,
but I’d do anything to be there with you.
I know it hurts, I can’t imagine how much.
But I sense that the burden is high.
And even though you act like you are doing ok,
I can sense that it’s just a disguise.
I know you think it’s necessary for you to put on a stiff upper lip.
But the burden your facing is immense and I’d understand if you started to slip.
What’s more important is knowing you’re safe and there’s help to keep you grounded.
And my hope is you know you are never alone, in fact, by love, you’re surrounded.
It’s hard to not constantly focus on what if’s,
but you must try to get it off your mind.
Rely more solely on the impact and gifts,
That they were sure to leave behind.
It’s not about the multitude of seeds left unplanted.
It’s about the impact they’ve made, don’t take it for granted.
For even if the garden didn’t sprout like you wished,
A single flower yields more hope than would pure emptiness.
Can I keep you this close?
Holding on tight? Keeping me so warm tonight.
Can I hold on to you?
Always rely on you to be here? Don’t say goodbye.
Is it that much to ask?
I’ll do whatever. Won’t ask a thing just love me forever.
And if you can.
Spare me the fraud. Whatever the cost, just give me your word.
And if it gets too close.
And is then pulled away. Moving on is not easy.
So just take caution.
As you pull me near. Cause it get’s harder and harder to not have you there.
“…the night was never made to hide sin,
but only to open the infinite distances to charity
and send our souls to play beyond the stars”
Your love it scares me in so many ways.
But I cant pretend like its not the light in my day.
So I cant let go for fear of getting burnt,
To live under cover leaves unknowns, which may possibly be worse.
Though I should rather fear opened skies, than ones with a shielding.
The sun harms, but shields protect, both things altering feelings.
Lights scare me. But I love the yielding of strength, it’s enough
To enter unchartered territories without backing down, giving up.
Guide me. But never lead me astray.
I count on this, love, I trust you to light my way.
The things that proceed in the still of the night.
Now set free from all that was forced to be.
Sleepless, tossing, turning. turn on the light.
Lay in bed, stare ahead, no relief in sight.
Spark of life amidst shadow of darkness.
Never thought the smoke would clear from this.
The thoughts they rage, remain unengaged.
Trapped in a cell no key to unlock it.
Keep it in, remains enclosed within. Never unleashing it’s light.
Set it free. Let it be. Introduce the dawn to the night.
