Stand still, stop running,
don't be afraid of me.
I'm as frightened as you.
I too have trusted,
I have been let down,
yet I am here waiting.
Let me reassure you,
let me show you love,
Allow yourself to feel.
Love has uncertainties,
there are no guarantees,
yet I'm still here waiting.
I will hold you gently,
listen most attentively,
if you just let me in.
I will be at your side
when all have turned away,
trust in me and see.
Stand still, stop running
I too have been let down,
let me reassure you.
I am still here waiting,
for you to let me in,
trust in us, you will see.

I can relate to this most perfectly! Sometimes it's so hard and we wish so badly that that other person could just see...

Sis,
You did theis very well and spoke the truth that many of us feel...all stand in fear, so just fight through it and others run away...beautifully put in sweet thoughts of one willing to stand and fight...
Best to you.
Merry Christmas!
