I'm No Longer Afraid Of The Dark
It’s never been easy, to always share with you
Feelings of my heart, stowed away in my head
Even though, you play such an important part
The time now has come that I should tell why
I was much afraid, to fall in love with any again
Feared it would lead me to places already been .
Didn’t want to live with another broken heart
It wouldn’t matter if, unintentionally or not.
I see falling in love as my walking in to the dark
Never knowing if there is path beneath me or not
guess it could be said I was afraid of the dark
on a journey I said I’d never take again.
Yet, I sensed everything about you was different
grabbed my attention captured my imagination.
You were wonderful, kind, witty and sweet
That combination always overwhelms me
You respected my space, with room to breathe.
that’s when I first begin to see the possibility
something real was there, other than physicality.
We got beyond that part of our relationship,
while we then worked on the emotional aspects.
thoughts in my head said, my heart wasn’t ready.
It wasn‘t as though; I hadn’t been this way before.
You never lost faith, one of your greatest strength,
or called into question my emotional commitment
Thank you for your believing in us enough
and not giving up, by hanging in there with me;
I’m no longer afraid of the dark, my heart is happy
