Some nights, I search for you under the covers You are tucked away safely in my dreams, Scaling mountains made of eucalyptus bark Swimming in shallow plunge pools with breath taking views And kissing in a queen sized bed What makes one worthy of devotion? You loved me as much as the moon loves the earth Handwritten notes stained with kisses and tears Stealing paper hearts and secret touches Sacrifices and thoughtful gestures The best strain of love But my name can never accompany yours on a piece of paper Is devotion given or is it earned? Let me know how devotion feels

Devotion
Some nights, I search for you under the covers You are tucked away safely in my dreams, Scaling mountains made of eucalyptus bark Swimming in shallow plunge pools with breath taking views And kissing in a queen sized bed What makes one worthy of devotion? You loved me as much as the moon loves the earth Handwritten notes stained with kisses and tears Stealing paper hearts and secret touches Sacrifices and thoughtful gestures The best strain of love But my name can never accompany yours on a piece of paper Is devotion given or is it earned? Let me know how devotion feels
