I keep searching,
Thinking their would be a reason,
Even one thing to keep me from acting,
From professing my love to you.
I realize how protective I am,
The times i have given so much and lost,
Crimes of others that you pay for,
And i know it is rightly unfair.
All we have is our time together,
To build this foundation, to grow,
Supporting one another's pursuits,
We travel a road familiar yet foreign to me.
Despite my reservations and defenses,
My happiness is boundless,
The potential prospects near infinite,
Dreams becoming all too real.
