This Is My Now

 This Is My Now

I remember when you first wrote me that letter.

I was astounded and thrilled to just receive anything

Short or long from you.

I remember how you told me that

This Is My Now

Was one of your favourite songs?

It’s something that was just ours

And I would never share that memory

Or song with anyone else.

Because just as much as it meant something to you.

This Is My Now

Meant something to me, it was time for me

To come out of my shell and be who I am.

I was struggling with identity crises for so long.

I just never fit into this world.

I wasn’t like other girls,

I wasn’t into the things they were.

Yes I dated boys, I enjoyed there company.

I was even in love with one,

But baby it wasn’t the same.

This Is My Now

Was a breakthrough

To be whom I always were.

I like girls, I liked boys.

Confused about who and what I should be.

The day I stopped pretending

Was the day you entered my life.

This Is My Now

I had to decide if I was going to hide

And play it safe and find the strength

In myself to take that step of faith.

It’s when you appeared

Out of nowhere you came into my life.

Never before have I been so amazed,

So in aww of your love and devotion.

It didn’t take that long

For me too see that love,’

Gone were the fears,

Gone were all the things I have ever feared

Because your love gave me so much more,

This Is My Now.
