When you decide to love me
Love me with your words
Love me with your hands
And I'll love you with all that I am

You came into my life so unexpectedly.  
The world gives us pleasant surprises, evidently.
In a life of shadows, you are a new light shining into me.
Like a flourishing canopy of trees hanging over me; you are my serendipity.  

Your warmth is at the surface of your skin; my heart is just beating too quick.  
You catch the race and calm me down, like words unspoken, we are unbound. 

I trace your skin, slowly trying to savor this sensation.
Your aura is a thriving glow, a never-ending vibration. 
You stare into my eyes like there is nothing in between us.  
Worlds apart but ties entangled within each other embark.
No walls exist with a connection of two souls like this.
  
Your eyes and my eyes laying together; locked within a bonded gaze.
As my mind and your mind are slipping from consciousness, we begin to fade.
Sleeping now, words are never needed to understand your ways.    

I can only hold you in this moment, with hope you never leave.  
I know everything is temporary, but you've always been a tease.
Everything i have ever desired right before my eyes, loose ends start to feel tied.
Every wrong turn seems like a lie; i was lead straight to you my oh, my.

In your hands my mind can only expand.

For however many seconds with you the universe has blessed upon me,  
I will twirl with the sands of time as the petals of daisies fall from my hands.  
Does he love me? Does he love me not? In a fresh garden, here in this ***.

I am sprouting up intertwining my roots with yours.
Flowers must not be mistaken for less; you Caimen,  
(the wildest wildflower of them all) are so much more.

I found you standing there,
in the corner of a big room.
I could see in your eyes,
you were a flower ready to bloom.

You were ready to go,
ready to see the world.
You were all alone,
just another lonely girl.

Like the moon in the night sky,
so far from the stars.
You were in need of a friend,
to help heal the scars.

And so I reached out,
and you took my hand,
and we explored the high mountains,
and put our toes in the sand.

We ran through the valleys,
and flew through the sky.
We walked through the forest,
and laughed till we cried.

We looked up at the stars,
so far yet so close,
so big yet so small,
we wanted them all.

And so we became stars.
