Risk

 
my sadness swell within me
I ache in the moment
dwelling inside the darkness of shadows

your figure over me hesitated
then reach in and gave me your love
it was a secret confession from your soul to mine

I took you to my inner woman
so you would know I love you in my sacredness
heart of my heart
I know you
because you trust me

I wish I was what you wanted
fate was cruel to us
close enough just to touch
and no more

inside my sorrow, you are a bright spot
lighting up my darkness
with your heart shine
stirring feelings of tenderness

come closer darlin'
I won't reject you
jaded trust in the hollow spaces
a scarred terrain

I am willing to make the journey
I've weighed the risks
I'm in love with you
