i thought for certain i would be on my own by now. On Thursday i waited for Monday, certain that would be the end. but those storm clouds did pass and the distance between us wasn't as far as i made it. in single steps i could stride and each step was right along with you. my mind wasn't made up and i knew in the distant future you would be my home. the words were let go, surrender and back away but i chose to stay to wait out the tide that i knew my love would break. like the rock that starts sharp and tossed by the sea becomes smooth, this is the shaping of my heart.
