Doubt No More
By Paul McCann
With real love something's never change .
I embrace it and accept it into my heart as the mystery unfolds .
We need to believe and accept the mystery of life and love ,
before we begin to destroy all the moulds .
Because I can accept the way it is without wanting to change it ,
My life is an uncomplicated bliss .
I accept how things are,
I have the courage to look at reality and then all of my doubts are dismissed.
You need to be rough and tough to survive these days . Flexibility and understanding is just not enough .
Before I can trust myself to love you ,
You need to prove to me that your feelings for me are not just a bluff .
I can never trust anyone or anything . Love has me blinded and bluffed.
Nobody will fool me again .
I doubt if I will ever fall in love again,
yet I am still looking out for someone.
Isn't it a shame
