Dedicated to Tiffany Rogers

I feel like there is something I want to tell you
I’ve felt a connection with you but I’ve not let anyone know the reason
I feel like I am trying to explain something that goes so deep
I know that we are here to serve our kids and ultimately our God
But so many times I feel I don’t share enough of how I am feeling
Sometimes I feel like I am to open and I scare a girl off
I get all clammy and I can’t talk but I know its just because of my nerves
I didn’t want to hide myself from you, but I didn’t want to hurt you either
I have been trying to hide from the world for so long
Knowing that now I can be open and I was born to be strong
Sharing my heart with others sometimes can be awkward because I don’t
Know how they will react, but thinking that it shouldn’t matter
Like a child I learn how to communicate my desires with others
Maybe I should hide my feelings from others because I don’t trust enough
I know that sometimes I feel like letting others know how I am feeling
Is too much of a risk, so I am willing to take that risk with you
I am so thankful that I get to work with you and we can teach together
The times that we sing not caring what others think; just being ourselves
I know that I am blessed to have you as my friend
A teacher who can believe and hope for the best
There are times that things don’t go exactly how they are planned
But we learn to adjust and choose to make it work
