The Wind Of Love

Realising I would never love the same again

Like the first time I ever did

All new, all innocent, all open

I ran as the wind of love blew

Never looking back, never scared of falling

trusted too early because why not?

Home was what my heart felt in your hands

Oblivion brought peace

Ignorance was indeed bliss

But now I know, oh I know too much

I have felt pain, my eyes have seen tears

My mind has awoken from delusions

My brain rewired

And love? Isn't just a feeling anymore

Love is a decision, a commitment

A service and an awareness

In that consciousness, I am more careful

Less trusting until I have reason to

I approach gently, walking alongside the wind

Grounding steps so I don't fall completely

My heart remains within me

The eagerness to give it out, gone

I no longer move blindly

I want to see your love

Show me, show me, show me
