i thought
many things
horrible things
yet none came to pass
because i met you

nervous expressions
now displayed
for these feelings were foreign
and new

i doubted myself
"no" i said
but my heart didn't listen
nor did my lungs

watching from afar
i had no desire
to be hurt
again

but you
yes you
threw that distance away
and made me
feel wanted

i did not know
that this step
would be the greatest i ever took
funny
i thought it would be the one
that trapped me

these stepping stones
that i now take
are oh so wonderful

regardless of the speed
i go
my heart is happy
it has found home
