you tipped my world into your axis-- gravity and such things that do not bind if we do not let them. weaved--time and affection into a wreath that wound up around my neck. (the wreath is pretty but breathing is getting harder and harder to do) i didn't master patience until i fell head first into your orbit. I haven't still--but when you understand something it'll become easier. i want to untold what i said--to swallow them back, hide them in between the crease of a smile; to cradle them--instead of giving them to you. but i did and there's no regret to linger on. (i have given everything--and myself still think it wouldn't be enough.) take your time, i would rather bleed out than be a cage. and i'll wait until you leave--until you asked; cause the ball is in your court. (know this, i have made my choice when i dreamed being with you that night; warm lights--and smiling, in between your arms.) "love isn't painful. what keeps you apart from it, is the one that's painful"

If it's meant to be it's meant to be
you tipped my world into your axis-- gravity and such things that do not bind if we do not let them. weaved--time and affection into a wreath that wound up around my neck. (the wreath is pretty but breathing is getting harder and harder to do) i didn't master patience until i fell head first into your orbit. I haven't still--but when you understand something it'll become easier. i want to untold what i said--to swallow them back, hide them in between the crease of a smile; to cradle them--instead of giving them to you. but i did and there's no regret to linger on. (i have given everything--and myself still think it wouldn't be enough.) take your time, i would rather bleed out than be a cage. and i'll wait until you leave--until you asked; cause the ball is in your court.
