13th Stepping It
I need to think
and leave my tears
but this is the only way to do it
13th stepping it isn't a good path to take
I know there's things to be done
and there's no rushing
but I don't want to get trapped
in my emotions
I'm still walking in the clouds
when I need to think each day
because I'm constantly reminded
"If it doesn't work out"
yet I'm still holding on
I remember the zeal
and I know what it's like
to keep the love you had at first
It's a powerful message
that needs to be studied
I'm not giving up just yet
I don't want there to be pressure and tension
but to continue slow
This is where I wish I had the power
to 'jump out of love'
if the need be
My transition was rocky
and I'm still a little scared
but I'm trusting in you
because I don't want to fall
It's only been a few weeks
and it's been some ride
I should have been writing and thinking all along
because I have blinders on
Maybe there's something I don't want to see
but I have people trusting in me
and warning me
There's not a rush
but somehow I feel there is
cause it's a long time to wait
