Leap of Faith

A battle of words between them
She felt her cold, hard heart had been revealed
She had told him all her opinions on love she had gathered
over the years,
Saying them out loud for the first time.

Every relationship she'd known ended badly
Her mother had four remarriages
But his mother, she had several more
She didn't believe there could be a happy ending
or a 'forever' in love
She truly believed love was a sham
Two outlooks on love and commitment entirely different
He would've been there for the long haul
He had known that she and he were meant to be together
He just knew. From that first day he crashed into her.
He believed when love does work - it is amazing
And it was worth it.

She realized she had to take a chance
She had to take a leap of faith
For Love is never guaranteed
But as she discovers, you must take that risk,
The risk of letting go and giving into love
You can't deny yourself love
You can't hold yourself back from people because of fear
She had believed you have to protect yourself,
That you can't give yourself away to someone
She was not stronger as she'd believed
She was afraid of taking that chance
She was simply afraid....

You mustn't regret those failed relationships
You mustn't live on the outside
You must live and love, not just wonder
on the inside, what it'd be like
