Fear go!.. I want to live… Loving…
Fearing this fondness, I hold for you
while fearing failure in my part.
Smash this wall, extreme blackness
give my eyes, soul, much light.
Trusting the hope.
together we’ll
live loving
In the
now.
Author notes
51. I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Sarah McLachlan
