How many times have I sat alone thinking,
"This isn't so bad...this being alone."
Being with someone for many years,
I felt the deepest sense of loneliness.
This feeling tore at my soul, bit by bit.
I was drowning in a life without love or caring.
Where infidelity and deceit was all too common.
I wondered if I deserved anything more from him.
And when tears could no longer console me,
I knew it was over, somehow I must have failed.
I was left believing that no one would ever mend,
That empty chasm, where once was my heart.
What seemed so desperate yesterday,
Is but a sad memory that no longer consumes me.
I'm beginning to believe in the message of my dreams.
Somehow I knew, that I would find someone like you.
Within this crowded place, I've searched throughout,
And only see your face, smiling and comforting me.
You're not a fantasy, but you did step out of my dreams.
And thus, you've awakened and overpowered my senses.
Can I trust what I feel, or is it my need to believe?
I know how you make me feel...happy and safe.
I'm opening this door to you slowly, but willingly.
I'm hoping that when it is wide open, I will find you there.
