Desire, Pursue, Reveal

When I asked if this is real

You said you were trying to tell me I’m the one you choose

But that you weren’t doing a good job at it

So I believed as you squeezed me close

Now I contemplate my perspective

As I consider your words, actions, and absence

You said you’re not ready, and you walked away

You want to be my friend, but you don’t share

Those deep eyes still try to soak me in

But I see the confusion clouding you

As your sacrificial heart becomes a battlefield

Choices: stand alone, steering from the weight you inevitably hold or confront emotions

Now I step back, waiting, your move determines my response

You can’t honestly say the friendship didn’t bloom beyond

Consider us and realize what exists here, valued

An honest love by faith supported, connected in lives shared

The saddest thing is to let go of something true

Take the time to be real with yourself, genuinely seek

What you want rests in you, waiting patiently

Find that desire and pursue it; reveal your love

Ordinary Hero

When I first met you

You seemed like any other guy

An ordinary man in an ordinary place

But the timing extraordinary circumstances

I saw the heart inside you

And glimpsed the hero beneath the clothes

I opened to you, and you crawled into me

But before settling, you started a war with yourself

A hero fighting himself becomes the villain

Stepping away from the issue, he takes the hits

Pulling in the ones he’s trying to protect

The longer the battle, the greater the harm

None can stop it but the hero

There’s no other choice

So lower your firsts and extend to me your hand

Before I fall out of reach

Stop the internal battle and conquer the world, not yourself

The world needs people like you

So give me my say and let me join you

Together we’ll fly
