I don't want to love you The ground seems to shake

You turn me out weak at the knees And need me to be meek

If life's about lessons What lesson is this

Of life, loss and heartbreak Or patience, gain and give and take

If I run from love I will lose and be ashamed But better to run the gauntlet To be laid bare and fearless At least my authenticity I keep
