A Moment With the Truth, if You Please

tread lightly with that last step
stepping over glass isn’t really
my thing, anymore

gonna be a doozy
 
but I know I’ll have to  
take it, anyway
 
anyway
 
all for my love’s honest claim
claiming to be whole isn’t really
my truth, evermore

my heart now knows better
 
and I fear I’ll try to  
wreck it, anyway
 
anyway
 
acceptance demands I give
giving in to truth isn’t really
my way, nonetheless

fisted hands can’t receive  
 
yet I know I’ll try to
keep it, anyway
 
anyway.
