Standing In The Dream Line


I added my name to
the things missed
and stand in
the line for love
so desperately
I need to be kissed
tired of this edge
falling short of

the secret of love
is to give
being alone brings me
to my knees
I do not want to live
this life I live
the result is a silent
lullaby on the breeze

releasing this void
can pour to full
hands that are empty
want to feel
where once was push
needs the pull
what was a dream
can now be real

I have been
so afraid to chance
I am weak
and again I can break
but my heart
was born in dance
so this is a risk
I have to take

yes, its a hard call to risk, again, but what's the alternative?
