At Long Last

It’s happening again No use fighting it anymore No since in trying to pretend I’ve allowed my heart to get to attached I’ve sewn the broken pieces you once caused and let them mend I had let you finally go Moved forward with me and accepted I would never again have you How was I to know You would come right back in my life And I went running back into you arms There I laid wrapped in the essence of you Caressing each other from the depths of darkness taking place deep within the night It felt so good It was all so painstakingly right But there you are trying to pick up your heart Trying to get over her And my heart is terrified that it’s going to be again, torn apart It’s however, a risk I much partake in I have to be true to myself and follow how I feel Even if it means, your love, I don’t win I can’t stop or turn off what I feel for you I’ve tried over and over There’s nothing more I know to do So yeah, I’m back there again Just can’t keep fighting this And no since in trying to pretend I’m here left drowning in my desire for you I’m the one that forever will stand in the center of that burning fire I don’t just want you I need everything of you But I stay here on the side Because of how I feel Waiting for the moment, I can willingly abide To whatever it is you wish Any and all passion between us is all to very real Until that day, should it ever come to pass Until that time that your heart had its chance to heal Ready I will always be to give to you nothing but that love, you to crave, at long last
