Without a doubt the question caught me off guard, And I knew I was going to tell her, I just needed a moment to control my heart rate To solve the dilemma And what it would mean And push back the strangling knot So I could speak. Like a static screen Words that I wrote faded Evaporated into black and white dots And a buzzing sound within my ear drums Left me back at the original conclusion, I cannot lie to her, But could I unbolt the gates? To let someone see what cannot be unseen And to be afraid Not of rejection But my own humanity, What quickly became apperant Was that a heart that had once bled out Was pumping at full speed And that sometimes it's okay To close your eyes Take a deep breath And jump into the deep end.
