so this is just like always,
there is something still missing.
although everything seems to be in its place,
i can't even see how my conscience protects me,
and i can't even learn how your trust is won in small steps.

and so... this is just a small step forward.

what is the only real truth?
just to agree with every smart word?
or a safe place where we can meet at last?
this is the same old endless need,
this sense of perfection that i have to feed.
am i being stupid or is this just human behaviour?

and now i'm finding it very hard,
to take the tiniest step forward if it can't be in my own pace.

this is just a small step forward,
find your strength.
this is just a small step forward,
find the strength to take the tiniest step forward.

and how far is too far?
