Where else can I take this depth of love? <br />What steps should I take, <br />If it leaves you afraid to follow. <br />I knew those fears before but not anymore. <br />You say it is love you wish. <br />And when I give it it is dismissed <br />Regardless of how much I prove it to expose. <br /> <br />Where else can I take this depth of love? <br />Only with you I want to submerge, <br />Completely. <br />No secrets kept do I keep as once I did. <br />And teasing is not as sweet as feeling fulfilled. <br />You want me on my knees pleading? No not me. <br /> <br />Where else can I take this depth of love? <br />What steps should I take, <br />If it leaves you afraid to follow. <br />I knew those fears before but not anymore. <br />You say it is love you wish. <br />And when I give it it's dismissed <br />Regardless of how much I prove it to expose. <br /> <br />Even on my knees pleading, <br />If pleading would please... <br />You would still seek an image of love I can't give. <br />I feel it not to question the reality and truth of it. <br />And your doubts keep you in fear. <br />Trust me to know this... <br />Love once known always recognizes it for what it is!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
