Phantom

Slowly, there's something changing

And in the air, uncertainty is hanging.

Somehow, it starts to linger.

We're both afraid of what's about to come.

But times like these reflect the end that I

Had thought were simply out of reach.

Though I've known for a while

That this feeling in my heart

Is no phantom.

And it's real.

I cannot imagine

How this all just came to be.

And now that I understand, have I the courage to try?

Sometimes, the doubt has fled and

I find that I've the strength to lift the veil

Cause "someday"s are just too far for

Someone like me to wait another day.

Though things are easier when said than done,

I know that I can't lose my way.

How does one convey what's

Hidden deep within the heart?

Forming words from

Something so new.

More than words becoming

The appearance of an act,

Far beyond, if it can reach under the surface, breathes life.

Though I've known for a while

That this feeling in my heart

Is no phantom.

And it's real.

How does one convey what's

Hidden deep within the heart?

Finding answers I seek in the eyes of one who gives me life.

It has been far too long,

Leading towards something strong.

Now that it's given way,

I cannot ignore the passion.

It has been far too long,

Leading towards something strong.

Now that it's given way,

I cannot ignore the passion.
