His Hurt Humanity
HIS HURT HUMANITY
COME CLOSE BUT NOT TOO CLOSE
GIVE ME YOURSELF BUT IN A SMALL DOSE
I WANT YOU ONLY NOW AND THEN
BUT ONLY IF YOU CAN
ALWAYS TURN AND WALK AWAY
WITHOUT A WORD WHEN I SAY
NO DON’T PUT RELATION IN FRONT OF SHIP
BECAUSE I’VE GOT A CHIP
ON EACH SHOULDER
IF YOU GET CLOSE I’LL GET COLDER
HE SAYS IT ALL IN ACTION
NO WORDS
NO SATISFACTION
FOR HER
TOO AFRAID HE WILL REJECT
SHE DOESN’T DARE AFFECT
THE GAME WITH INQUISITIION
WHAT’S YOUR POSITION?
SHE GATHERS FROM HOW HE ACTS
WHAT ARE THE REAL FACTS
HIS FEARS WON’T TAKE HIM ABOVE
DENYING HIS HEART HER WANTING LOVE
HIS HUMANITIE’S FORCEFUL SHAME
KEEPING HIS HEART IN A STATE OF LAME
UNABLE TO OBTAIN A HEART THAT IS FREE
TO OPEN TO HER HEART’S PLEA
TO LOVE HER FULLY AND COMPLETE
NOT JUST BETWEEN THE SHEETS
ONLY IN HER SILENT TEARS
SHE BEGS HIM, LET GO OF YOUR FEARS
TAKE SHELTER IN MY PLACE
WHERE YOUR LOVE I WILL EMBRACE
OLD WOUNDS BLIND HIM TO HER CRIES
IN HIS SILENCE LOVE WITHERS AND DIES
ONLY IN REFLECTION NOW
HE SEES CLEARLY HOW
SHE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SURVIVE
SHE FOUND A LOVE WHERE LOVE COULD THRIVE
LEFT HIM ONLY TO REGRET
THAT HIS HURT HUMANITY WOULD NOT LET
HIM KNOW HIS ONE TRUE LOVE IN THIS LIFE
NOT LET HIM HAVE HER FOR HIS WIFE
HE HAS FALLEN VICTIM TO LIFE’S IRONY
LESSONS LEARNED TOO LATE IS TYRANNY
NOW ABLE TO FORGIVE HIS OWN HUMANITY
HE SEES HOW BROKEN LOVE TURNED TO INSANITY
CAN TAKE THE ONLY THING WE CAN TRULY KEEP
THAT WHICH WE SOW WE REAP
HE SEES HOW LOVE LOST WAS ONCE LOVE SHARED
HOW BECAUSE HE DARED
HE WILL LEAVE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR THOSE
WHO HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE TO HIM BUT CHOSE
TO LOVE FREELY AND SET ASIDE THEIR PRIDE
KNOWING THE RISK OF LOSING WAS WORTH THE RIDE.
THAT LETTING LOVE IN AND LOVING HIM WITHOUT RESERVE
WOULD BRING IN LIFE AND DEATH A PEACEFUL RECONCILIATION DESERVED.
NOW IN HIS MOMENT OF PASSING HE CAN FEEL FULLY HER LOVE
WASHING OVER HIM BRINGING HIM PEACE AS HE FLIES ON THE WINGS OF A DOVE
TO HIS FINAL RESTING PLACE WHERE HE WILL WAIT
FOR A SECOND CHANCE WITH HER WHEN SHE TOO ENTERS THE GATE.

How our experiences leave us with a fear to ever take a full leap of faith again. We end up missing most the letting go, the comfort in the arms of one who loves you and is either blind to your faults, forgives them or loves them. We get to the edge of just hat but our little seed of fear grows and it becomes so big it is a hurdle we sometimes won't get over especially when both people are facing that same fear.
