Let Go and Not Fall

Able to stand yet not willing to leap
wanting to jump but my footing I keep

To risk shattered heart or be busted and broken
not sure of the price for offering my tokens.

I'm poor in success of the strength that I lack
to not offer my pearls or keep them held back.

watching him live within her arms
knowing he gazes on her favored charms.


The torment within raging throughout my veins
wanting to pull on the bridle, but instead drop the reins.

no understanding of life's intercept
many nights wondering why as I lay and I wept.

How long should one heart really endure
with feelings so raw and emotions so pure?

Wanting to run at a speedy rate
and to rescue from a self created fate

is there no way to let go and not fall?
must it be everything or nothing, winner take all?

I play the fool this truth I know
my addiction is fixed to see his smile glow.

I fear I have failed and fallen from grace
never to own the smile on his face.

Steady and stable, reinforced where there's slack
his measure of caring brings my soul back on track.

taking all of the portion he has for me
knowing there's more of what I failed to see.

Believing his call isn't fate in the wind
knowing such treasure, my heart starts to mend.

Strengthened and confident, tall and elite
wanting to jump yet, my footing I keep.
