only halfway
(Dedicated to B.T.)

what if trying isn't enough
and wanting goes only halfway?
what if giving comes far too tough
and love is just words that i say?

you said always, through thick and thin,
you would be there by my side.
you meant it, but given my sin
can the same truths be applied?

what if needing doesn't quite work
and certainty's anything but?
what if real love is something i shirk
and you can't forgive me this cut?

willing to try
crying to want
hoping to give
waiting to need
aching to love
but what if outweighs it all.
