I once penned - To find someone that would Want you, exactly as you are Was to find depth In an ocean of shores. I look no more. I could not care less, that My fear used to get the best Of me. It still lingers and creeps Even in my sleep, But I know I'm afraid only Because shes perfect, Perfect as can be - Realistically speaking, Shes just right for me. I cannot write of beauty, And that's not for the lack of it. It is only because I'm so distracted By her charm and wit - The funny accents, slightly ***** jokes But with capacity of depth Only oceans invoke I see passionate flames That just need to be stoked. At this point I cannot tell If this will work out well. I can only say that I will love her fully. I will let her destroy me Completely. I will not back down, I will try To give myself to her As if I was never broken Because shes deserves more Than the shell of the man I believe I am. If she cries in the Dead of night, I want to hear every last Word soaked in pain leave her be. If where she lies Lacks enough light, I want to be right by Her side, just so she can sleep peacefully. And if my eyes Start to lose sight, I know I need not see. I know shes got me. I need not more - I've got her To calm my seas. Let me sing, Let me soar - The Left Handed Leo roars I've found depth In an ocean of shores.

An Ocean Of Shores
