For everyone who lets fear get in the way

[jaycee00]

Kinda speaks to me...being shy, always too afraid to do something...put myself out there.

Some say love, it is a river

That drowns the tender reed

Some say love, it is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed

 

Some say love, it is a hunger

An endless, aching need

I say love, it is a flower

And you, it's only seed

 

It's the heart, afraid of breaking

That never learns to dance

It's the dream, afraid of waking

That never takes the chance

 

It's the one who won't be taken

Who cannot seem to give

And the soul afraid of dyin'

That never learns to live

 

When the night has been too lonely

And the road has been too long

And you think that love is only

For the lucky and the strong

 

Just remember, in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snows

Lie the seed, that with the sun's love

In the spring, becomes the rose

[Lighting1]

That's pretty deep and very true. Many people let fears stop them from finding happiness.

All too true....

Can definitely relate. So much truth.
