They don't understand!
They don't get it!
They never have!
Can't they see you make me happy?
Can't they see I'm in love?
They say love blinds us.
But you know what?
I don't care.
If I'm blind.
I love it.
You're beautiful.
You make me feel beautiful!
Nothing will ever change my mind.

So babe.
Take my hand.
Kiss me.
Wrap your body in mine.
And let's go.
I'll grab some cash.
Maybe some clothes.
And we can be on our way.

Let's run!
Far away!
Let's get outta this town.
We've grown out of it!
And you know how to travel the world.
Now show me.
Show me all the things you've seen.
Show me the good and bad.
Let me see your 4am face.
Let me touch your 5pm body.
Let me kiss your 11am lips.
Let's be something.

Let's run for the life we can have together.
Just us.
Just me.
Just you.
Together.
For however long we've got.
Let's go.
I'm feeling very stubborn about this.

I keep feeling too much.
My heart aches at the tremors of your steps as I imagine you leaving.
My mind keeps replaying nights when we were happy.
And I don't know if I can give that to you anymore.
I'm terrified of feeling that god awful rip in my heart again.
Cause you bandaged the peices up and I know how easy it is to walk away.
They've all shown me that.
But I don't understand..
Why does everyone seem to have less feelings?
Why does everyone seem to have the power to walk away.
When I can't even breathe.
I think I'm broken.
I can never be the one to leave.
That's why I continuously get hurt.

Have you ever had that stomach churning, hurricane kind of love?
The kind that makes you stand on your bed at 3am shaking your hair and your head and wiping your face with excitement filled hands.
Have you ever loved someone so much that they begin to slowly invade your thoughts and all the bits in between?
I've had that kind of love only once.
And it's the best kind of love.

Airports are intriguing lately.
They're your refuge.
They wake when ordinary people are in a sleepy bliss.
They hold secrets.
And runaways.
And hidden doors to the unknown.
Tender kisses.
Solemn cries.
Broken hearted lovers
No chance to say goodbye.

These airports feel things only poets seem to write down.
Emotion fills the halls.
As passengers avoid the fall..

This airport seems so lonely.
Take me with you.
Let us fly.

I want that waking up at 6 am to make you breakfast kind of love,
that my friends think I'm absolutely crazy kind of love
the kind of love that is reckless and addicting
that I don't care what you look like I just want to stay up all hours to share secrets kind of love
that every time I see you my heart throbs kind of love
that I see you upset and you don't have to say anything and I already know what to do kind of love
that stand next to me because I love you kind of love
that "you can have the cup with more coffee" kind of love
that you get my heart and the world gets the worst of me kind of love.
that you are my everything kind of love.
I just want you to bite my lip until I can't speak and can't scream anyone's name but yours.
I want you to touch the places that my ex forgot to touch.
I want you to let me scratch my brokenness into your back so that your moans can be the only thing that can fix me.
Let me make your body sing songs your lips don't know the words to.
Resurrect me so you can be all that I live for.
I want love.

I never really put much thought into love.
I figured it was something imaginary.
Parents say I love you.
But then they scream at each other behind slammed doors.
Boys tell you they love you to get in your pants.
Girls seem to love everything whether it's fluffy, pretty or just **** attractive.

I've never been one to believe in it all.
It never made much sense.
Always a meaningless word.
Signifying as little as four simple letters.

But then I met you.
And it may have been a sunny day.
And everyone may have been in high spirits.
But we walked.
And we talked.
And I think I felt our souls bounce off each other.
Like they were old friends reconnecting.
Catching up.
Yet you were totally new.

And two days.
Two days is all it took for my soul to understand that it found its long lost friend.
But then we were separated again.
And our souls are struggling to stay in touch.

But I feel deep down that you're not gonna be gone long.
We'll see each other again.
And we'll be Soulmates.
And I know for a fact I will run anywhere with you.

Because the feeling I get when I'm with you.
It's as if those four empty letters are full at last.
And they're full to capacity.
I know it's not lust.
I feel it in my soul.
This is love.
