PATIENCE

If you had known
Where this road would lead us,
Would you have driven so recklessly?

This world is incredible,
But we cannot be a part of it
And be together now.

Choices... they are mine.
Your strength is my weakness
And your weakness is me.

If I should tempt you
Be strong in your faith,
For I have not the courage to leave,
Nor the will to make you go.

I shall follow you anywhere, everywhere,
But not yet...
Yet, if our time is not now,
Then how can we be together like this?

Rest assured that our weakened hearts
Are but nothing
To the love that awaits us.
