Hmmm... =]

Wondering, waiting, wishing,
In the background of my mind,
An intriguing little mystery,
Amidst the daily grind,

Ever cautious with my heart,
Guarded by a wall,
Fortified by pain and tears,
Because I'm scared to fall,

I don't want to hurt again,
Or cause you any pain,
My heart longs to believe in love,
But I'm slow to trust again.

So forgive me if I pull back,
Or if I move too fast,
I'm just trying to figure myself out,
And I'm scared that this won't last,

I'm waiting, praying, trusting,
That God will have His way,
Trying to see the black and white,
That's blurred with shades of grey.

Truest love is not time's fool,
Does not fade with time,
A burning ember, glowing hot,
Enduring, will not die,

Sparks enamor, but soon are gone,
Flames of passion reduce to ash,
But trust and respect feed the heart,
Of a love that is made to last,
