With your eyes glowing gold
Reach for me like I'm a fast fading light
Hold onto me like we are on a lifeboat and a really strong current would slam us over
Happiness is contagious
And it seeps into my bones as deeply as the warmth on a sunny day
Chasing away the chills in my soul
Pick me up like I'm a fallen star who has seen how majestic the skies are
Show me the way back to where I once shone so bright from

Ache

The ache

There is a longing in me
For you
Resonating deeply
Untouchably
With no release
Adequately
Freeing me
From the ache
You've made
Of me.

But fear

There's a weapon
Inside me
Proceeding we
A history, a knife
And puncture wounds
Highlight
The mistakes that are
My life.
Constantly reminding me
Of how sharp I am
By the scars I've left.

So ache

That's all there's left
Of me
Without you.
this is the fortune that comes with me
