Time To Face All My Fears

I look around and realize
my life had been in disguise
for so very long
I couldn't no longer remember
how being happy
truly felt
until I heard
your voice on the 
other end of the line
until I got the chance
to once again
gaze into your eyes
and I realized
emotions I have for you
really do still fun deep
they need to be said
they need to be heard
what do I do now
life thus far has
thrown me so many damn curves
not sure I trust myself anymore
been wrong
so many times before
I know I'm not mistaken
about my feelings for you
just not sure why
I feel like you
feel the same way too
could there really
be a chance
that we had to go through
all what our lives had
taken us through
so we could now
be on the same page
I'm willing to take that chance
to risk my heart again
are you...
can you again put it all on the line
can we truly make
it work between us this time
I may not believe
in much these days
yet I believe in us
in so many ways
I feel it for sure now
it's going to happen soon
I'm going to look 
deep into your eyes
knowing there will be tears in mine
and tell you
baby I'm still in love with you
yes it's going to be hard
that and so much more is true
but I know
this is what I have to do
I just can't any longer
let it be
I have to do this 
for you, but even more so
for me
the time is almost here
time to face all my fears
