Chance the Future

No more than a hopeless dream-
Is it hopeless, as it seems?
Am I wishing 'gainst the odds?
Or can I know a different god?

Such confusion, such mystique,
All surrounds the love I seek.
Terrified and filled with fear,
Can I risk this Holy Tear?

Know, I don't, but here I stay,
Ready to chance a different day.
Standing tall and standing true,
Say you love me as I love you.
