Almost

Just when the candle light dims
A rage of fire descends
Scared and safe
Drowned in all this heat
Here we go again…
So far, yet so close
Terrified it’s almost an almost
It’s clearer now
I want you
You want me
But what do we do if we’re not near to be?
You frighten me
I want to give you everything you’ve always dreamed
But I don’t want you to fight with life

You always push me away when you lose sight
You’re so much more than what you believe
Look into my eyes and you will see
A reflection of you that isn’t a fright
You’re so beautiful
You’re wonderful
And yet, we’re forgetful of how far we really are
I’ve tried running away
But you’ve put me in a maze
Drawing me in with a light that brings passion down my spine
It’s something I need and can’t escape in this life
Don’t you see?
You’re more than a diagnosis of mind games and word plays
You’re a young man that needs someone to stay
And listen shall I do
I’ll be the one you’ll confide too
I don’t care how long it takes for you to trust me
Because all I need is to just believe
That you and I are one step closer to being a possibility
Where we’ll soon come together and feel right as it seems
So keep that match in place
And let your fires rage
I’ll follow the lights into your heart
Just remember it will dim no matter how far apart
Cause you’re still the only love I’ve ever wanted
But please don’t forget the rose you fell upon
