nails on your back
my head to the wall
i've written a happy ending after all
wishful thinking
becomes a thing of past
i am nothing without you
a toast with broken glass
turn the page if you will
here i'll be, standing still
whatever we erase
is always replaced
by something better
something real
i give you my life
i ask you to keep it
i gave you my heart
i'll admit it has weakened
but that's due to the fact
my love for you has deepened
hold me forever and beyond
i don't care who we hurt
i'll watch the world shatter to hell
before i let you bleed first
romance isn't it
it's a life; a chaos of our own
light the candle to our goblet of dreams
sit next to me on our throne
being apart i just can't condone
if not with you,
i'd rather die alone
you're the perfect novel;
a story on your own and then
i could write pages and pages about your smile
your voice in itself is the greatest poem;
your mind is the pen
not a fairytale, because those are fake
you are here in the now;
your skin i can taste
wrap me in your forever
your world is my home
for if not with you,
i'd much rather die alone.
This is actually a song I wrote, but I enjoy it as a poem just as well.
