Torn From the Pages of My Heart
If He Would Dare
He took me to the stars
through his eyes
That searching look
unwavering... smoldering
pinning me in place
taking up all the space
commanding me to unfold
all things in me
that are yet to be told
I couldn't peel away
If I wanted to
He's three steps from me today
Three steps from the truth
He's finally facing
my wall of cold pretenses
He knows it's hard to love me
He said so himself
But why...
Should he dare touch me now?
Has he found a key
To get to me somehow?
'Cause it would be the end of him
He would be mine
I could devour all of him
Then leave to forget my crime
He should stop where he is
His poor heart is at risk
For I might flee with it,
And he'd have nothing left
Just as I would
Have my heart betray me
Be true for once with fear he'd claim me
If he would dare close the gap,
If he would dare take those steps.
