take a breath, leave your heart ajar
you have come so close, so close,
so far

reckless hope could not harm a man
memorize the time it all
began

make that dream more than you imply
leave her there, let go, unless
you try

all you wish — fingertips that touch
rays of light of hers, so much,
too much

all your hopes — fingertips that touch
warmest light, her light you love
so much

drop those chains, chains that tied your hands
do you leave your dream before
it ends

hold your heart, watch how that regrows
you have come so far, so far,
so close
