The Journey to Love


The love that never dies The tears shed are dried You come the doors are pried To the heart I tried to hide You stole it in an instance Years of persistence Keeping my distance Shattered by your consistence I pushed away You stayed another day I screamed "Never!" You whispered "Forever" I said I hated you You knew it wasn't true For hours I cried You were the one who dried my eyes You said you loved me What we had was a possibility I told you to wait I was fragile I could break I was unfair I was selfish I took your heart And was reckless I hurt you I could tell I was lost, I fell The scars fade away But the memories remain The act of forgiveness forever sustains I can't promise things will turn out fine But i have to be honest I want you to be mine I never stopped loving you And I never will Deep inside my heart You are with me still The Journey to love is finally complete From the first glance, first touch, First irregular beat You stole my heart and its yours to keep.
