You tell me you feel the same way, and my god its a beautiful thing to experience.
Yet I can tell that both of us are holding ourselves back, in some ways at least.
There was a time in our lives that we loved people besides each other.
God & Man
We didnt know any better.
However, we both shattered under the weight of heartbreak.
And we didnt know how to cope with it, not at first.
God & Man
Thats why were where we are now.
Its why Im holding your hand instead of his.
Its why youre saying my name instead of hers.
Its why we are building something new together instead of sitting alone reminiscing on what used to be.
Yet there is hesitancy in our love now.
Its a little more shy than we once remembered it.
It doesnt scream its adoration from rooftops, but whispers it and hopes the other person heard it.
We dont do grand romantic gestures because were scared to death.
We dont say sweet nothings because we did that once before, and we watched that love die.
And if Im being honest, its not fair.
Its so hard.
But honestly,you are worth it.
You are worth every grand romantic gesture I could ever come up with.
Youre worth every sweetly sincere declaration I could say.
You are worth all of those things and then some.
I survived heartbreak once.
It was awful, soul-shattering.
And then I met you.
So I have faith that, god forbid it does happen, that I will be okay.
And I wont regret a single moment of it.
