Wonders and Fears

from so far away from you I can look into your eyes
I see the small child the hurt and the lies
from so far away from you I can reach for your touch
feeling your warmth and anger which scares me so much
from so far away from you I feel your fear and wonder 
why did you reach for me where are you going
how many tears will you trade to win or lose 
but most of all I wonder will you be strong enough 
to love me anyway
