I dare
(written sometime in 1999)

I dare to sit and wait for you
When you walk away from me.
I believe that
You would soon return for me.

I dare to drive home alone
And to believe that we would
Meet again.
I dare to let go
Because you need your time,
You said.

I dare to smile for you when
You cry.
I dare to be strong just because
You asked me to.
I dare to share my darkest secrets
Because with you I feel safe.

I dare to open my heart to you
Although I know I’ll be hurt
I dare to forgive you
For all the pain and hurt
I dare to forget all the time
You made me cry
Above all, I dare to love you
With all that’s within me
And now, I dare you
To do the same for me

-Written for you, you know who you are.
