Where There Is a Will

Where there is a will, there is a way And I remind myself that this is just the beginning But being here is keeping my heart in chains I want to fly away to the place where I know I'm wanted To the arms that belong to more than just a person My heart struggles to find the words to scream It yells in vain because there is no one to hear it The echoes of silence resound inside my head As I comprehend that I could be somewhere else... The knowing of the loss is unbearable I wait in agony when there is nothing left to do And I will him to come back for me Hoping there is something in his heart that draws him In my arms is where he should be But there is a troubling and sorrowful doubt That placed itself in my brain What if when he returns he won't want me? What if he doesn't echo my love? That is the question, dear friends So I beg the one who is more than just human to come back Be my lover and don't present yourself with an opportunity to leave He says that love is just a word and he wants to say so much more But if love is a word, what does he really want to say? It drives me insane hoping that the word he searches for Is the one I have waited my whole life to hear But again the nagging doubt in the back of my mind Whispers conspiracies and plants hopelessness in my heart And I feel alone in a world where he doesn't exist He says he will wait for me and I promised the same But what about the saying "Promises are made to be broken"? If that is true, I cannot fathom what life will be like without him But maybe that's what promises are really for To gain trust in the one you depend upon And know that what they say is true and not just another empty lie Others cannot understand what we do Being together is what keeps us from falling apart But some are jealous and won't stand for the "abomination" that we are But if love is really true, why should they care? What is it about our business that makes them so interested? What is it about our love that drives them to insanity to keep from happening? There is no cure for true and unselfish love There is no denying it for the world And when they have the revolution that there is more than meets the eye, They will leave and never return Never again bothering us and we can love in peace And that is the dream I strive for And that is the dream that will soon be mine
