I've waited for your love like parched ground waits for rain
Only your kisses can quench these thirsty lips
I've longed for your love like a weary soldier longs for his home
Your smile made my dying heart joyous, and its once again brimming with life
I live for you like a pirate lives for gold and for the sea
You are my oasis in this vast desert that is life

I express my love in unsent letters
Promising to give shelter, everytime you come across unfriendly weather
Am right there with you when you're lost in the storm, feeling fearful and light as a feather
I just want to know whether, there's a chance that one day our hearts will be tethered
When am restless and moving too fast you're my pacesetter
Am sinful,maybe even soulless but everyday you make me better

Ex
once one but we split into multiple parts, divide
two bodies moving in opposite directions, diverge
hoped you'd give me all that you have
I gave you all that I had
sadly you gave me less than half
i've never been your fave
all I ever wanted to do was love
and make love to you like a perv
you calmed me down when the world got on my nerves

You light up my days like a lantern
I've noticed am happy each time am with you, it's a pattern
And with each moment my heart grows fonder
Each time I hope time slows down and we're here longer
My heart is overwhelmed with joy like a young bird when it learns to fly
I can't love you perfectly but I promise I'll try
You're my poison
It's like you got me under some love potion
I want to be with you till the day I ride in a hearse
I want to hold your hand and carry your purse

hiding my eyes so you cant see my soul
am searching for something to make  me whole
i try to be strong but sometimes the weight takes its toll
the nights be cold and dark as coal

my heart is bound in iron clutches
all the broken fragments held together by patches
i try to offload the pain but like a tick onto me it latches
feels like hours but just ten seconds have passed on my watches

Notes from my days in hell
pray to God I make it out alive and well
Raise up my hands and kneel
Hope these wounds eventually heal
Maybe I'll finally be able to feel
Lying on my bed completely still
Am constantly hurt, wish I was strong like the man of steel
Wish I was free from all these pills
Even my smallest fears give me chills
When am sleeping I dream of love and unimaginable thrills
I was selfish, for my own happiness I was willing to ****
Want to get to a place where I can forgive myself of all my ills
Conquer every valley, mountain and hill
