Brave Enough

If I was ever brave enough Pondering my feelings What would I express to you Could I let it all out The depth and effect you have on me Could I unravel it all Make any sense of how I feel Organise my thoughts Engage your attention in me Just so you get my groove Its love I fear So when you are near I melt with the attraction Emotion overwhelms I only know how to run Impressions from my past Come forth to stamp a mark That cautions me to stop Not give in to my heart Let you in or allow you to see Give me the strength Help me become brave Push forward through the pain That hinders me with restaint Like barbwired in a cage Nervous beats pounding Distance myself Layers of emotions Like the evolving sea I feel this within me On the smooth shiny sand You stand, guiding me in Gently groping fragile rope Pulling me toward the shore To free me from my lonely raft Finally a man who can help me see Bringing me into the light Shedding my old skin All that has been locked away Saturates me, I am finally free Intensity that gravitates Me to you, you to me I am yours, you are mine No longer do I run or hide On the tip of my tongue Embracing that I love you
