Working Up the Nerve

I've been working up the nerve for at least a year or two I think I'm finally at the point now where I'll send it on to you I've reached my limits how to say this, eloquence is not my strength So if the meaning still eludes you, we can talk it out at length I know in pointed conversations we run the risk of being cruel But neither you nor I are perfect so we'll just have to make due When our communication broke down something broke in me as well And the more I think about it, it's put me through a bit of hell, but I was never at a place Like I am right now And I'm praying that you Are at this same place somehow So I've been working up the nerve to finally bring it up to you I'm not quite sure what came between us but this talk is overdue All the bridges that had spanned us, drawing lines between two broken lives Have atrophied in isolation, begun the process to unwind And if I may have disappointed, I hope you'll travel to, in time A place for me to find forgiveness, a place for you as well in kind I was never at a place Like I am right now And I'm praying that you Are at this same place somehow
