Free To Love Again


You come,
Daring the shadows,
And the wild land,
You’ve never seen,
To save me,
From my doom...

I see you,
With love in your eyes,
Wondering if I dare,
Let you enter the room,
I have boarded up,
And shut forever...

You whisper to my ears,
But it is my heart who hears,
Your gentle words of love,
And truth and loyalty...

Give you a chance you ask,
To prove your love is true ,
And I wonder,
If I can trust you...

My heart beats,
With love I can’t reveal,
With hope I can’t conceal,
With dreams I hope are real...

You have given me a gift,
Wrapped so carefully and beautifully,
I pull the ribbon and look inside,
And what I see,
Makes me cry...

Your heart lies in the box,
On red velvet,
Beating for me,
And I wonder if you see,

How much this meant to me,
You say,
I hold your life in my hands,
That you want me to love this man,
Who stands before me,

I wish I could convey,
How much I love you in every way,
How I see your smile in my dreams at night,
How the thought of you waiting,
Eases my fright,
Of being alone forever in the world...

Will you take my hand,
Let me join you,
Show you my land,
Show you how I live here,
Learning to love you without fear...

I love your eyes,
I love your soft voice,
Leaving me no choice,
But to love you forever,
To care for you,
More than my own life,
To one day say yes,
To being your wife...
