Are we worth the risk?

[iLoveYouWithaKnife]

And tonight when you called,
I got this second chance hope effort feeling-
the kind I felt when we were driving,
from Philadephia to Boston.
And I knew with the correct words,
and the support of the rest of them
you'd be on your way to Danbury-
to stay, and dance your heart away
into the night, that surrounded us.

And just like tonight-
I figured with the correct words
and the amount of excitement in my voice
you would be convinced
that I still wanted you more than anything.
You said you'd missed me.
And I've been waiting.
And when you do find time,
it seems like no time has passed at all.

But the truth is,
I have been waiting for too long.
I want to run away
AND have it all....
but are we worth the risk?

All this time now
has ME thinking...
and what else was I suppose
to be doing...
when the phone calls weren't
coming through?

And you say this time
is what you needed to realize-
but you should have had it
all figured out before
because sometimes I feel
I'm just the escape plan.
Will it be worth it in the end?

Maybe all those times
I said I wasn't going to answer,
I should not have.
And all those times
you said you were going to call,
maybe you should not have,
days later.

Nice.

It took me 5 years to realize the end wasn't worth it. Don't let it take u that long.

That was well written. I know what you mean. I think that sometimes it is not becuz we do not realize it, but becuz we make ourselves ignore it.
