Long Awaited Love

All those months of pain.
I watched you walk right by me.
I admired you from a distance,
Always dreaming of what could be.

I never thought you'd come around.
I never thought you cared.
Until that day you took my hand,
And showed me you weren't scared.

I have feared that I would be hurt,
But you showed me how to trust.
You showed me that this is pure love,
It isn't just driven by lust.

It is hard to belive all the tears I shed,
Because you didn't see me.
But now your love means so much more,
Because I know that we are meant to be.
