Trials Of Faith

I walk through these trials
Not knowing if I pass with flying colors.

The waves in my hair
Or the gleam in my eyes.
Is it my laugh
Or my smile that Shines.

Tell me why
Cuz I don't understand.

There's magic in the air
Because somehow...
I'm drawn to you.

I'm a turtle in a shell
But with you...
A beautiful butterfly.

I hide from everyone,
Even from my family.
With you it's different,
I can't hide.

There's no where to run
Cornered by the sun,
But to my heart I'll go.

I'm scared,
Very scared,
Now that you're near
And I want you to stay.

I feel like I'm stuck in a trap,
Every time I do this to myself.
I don't want to hurt you
But you now have the ability
To hurt me.

I plunge into the darkness
With full trust in you,
Somehow secure when talking with you.
It's so strange I let you in
When I wanted to be alone.
When my heart was torn
And longed for someone else.

It's surprising
My feelings for you.
Now I long to see you,
To be in your arms embrace.

But I realize...Is this all a dream,
Can this be real,
Is this what I've waited for,
Cuz with you it feels like forever.

Still...
I'm scared
But have full trust in you,
Somehow secure when talking with you.
