should I give love a second chance

I wanted to love you
but I was just too scared,
haunted by the past
that always seemed to re-appear.

I tried my best to run and hide
but I just couldn’t get you off my mind.
should I give love a second chance
or am I just wasting my time?

you promised you were different
but so did the rest,
then you looked into my eyes
and I knew you had passed the test.

so I took a chance
and fell deeply in love,
maybe this is what I have been looking for
that special kind of love from above.

God, how can this be true
everything is happening so fast,
but something keeps telling me
I have found true love at last.
