Risk

Risk

I’m just another piece of the puzzle
That doesn’t seem to fit
I keep looking past the reflection
And seeing the person behind it
I just keep dreaming of what it could be
But it’s hard when everyone is waiting for me to choose
They look straight at you and me
Fingers tapping impatiently
I try harder to understand what to do
I’d be sick of this if I didn’t care
My heart and my head both point at you
Screaming inside my mind
Yelling at me to decide for the best
I throw my hands up in surrender
I’ve lost the battle to keep my heart and head separate
Because the only thing they are shouting at me
Now it’s all the same
The reason they keep yelling
My heart saying that this is a chance
My head yelling that I can deal
They’re all telling me the same thing
That this is what I was waiting for
This is the chance to prove to myself
That I’m sick of dreaming, living somewhere else
That this is a piece of the puzzle that can fit
That I can break this mirror that shadows me
That I can dream and things come true
I can’t think of a better way
To risk my everything
Then to ignore that voice in my head
Whispering that I can still get hurt
That this armor I’ve built myself
Can still break against another hit
Because if there aren’t two outcomes
Then what’s the risk?
