My Leap of Faith

Tell me your secrets. Ask me your questions.
There's no one I can pass them on to.

And there's too much of I in me.
It's not to be about me. Not all the time.

Things are changing, they must.
But things are just not right... them I really don't trust.

Not now. Not today. Ask me some other time.
In the desperate loneliness, are memories sublime.

I'm letting go. I'm keeping the faith. There will be the nicer days.
Neither happiness nor sadness stays.

Everything moves, whatever be its pace.
Tomorrow, if not today, I'll see your pretty face.

If not tomorrow, the day after.
I'll again hear your sweet laughter.

Not to be obliterated, our memories are to keep.
For you, this time, I'll take this blind leap.

Nothing to Lose

With a load on my heart and a blanket over my eyes.
I'll turn a blank face to all our past ties.
Even if only for a while...

If it's what you want, I'll slide past like an invisible shadow.
So you won't even know I'm there.
The words in our memory might fade, but will never disappear.

I'll hang around, and wait for when I see your eyes searching me.
I'll be right there. Just reach out and hold my hand.
And that won't change no matter where we stand.

Each embrace, will still be around. You just have to wish it.
Every kiss, every look, every song... all you've to do is miss it.

And now we're both on our trips, but let's meet somewhere in the middle.
(...can't get a line...)
Start a new one together.

You may be a new person then. I may be different too.
But suddenly, unexpectedly, I think I'll again fall in love with you.
We'll start from zero, there's nothing to lose...

The naiveté of the time this post was written has been brushed aside by now.
Feeling better, being a lot more out of denial.
