an iceberg falls in love with the sun.

i feel like i am the sun and you are an iceberg i can not touch you and still you beg me to some of the time i will have to hide you from my rays but it will never be to hurt you some times to grow stronger it will have to get colder and i'll have other places to be do you trust with i say i'll never truly leave? i know for you it is hard to believe but take it from the girl who already surprised you once take it from the girl who already found your trust take what i have while i hope it's enough you are an iceberg do you know what that means? i know you only show the world parts of you but i also what what it is you keep way down beneath that icy surface and i know its much greater than what they ever guessed i know its much more than you'd ever credit i know its much more powerful than you ever admit but are you ready for this? there are other bittersweet heats than me some less reckless and some more reliable remember what it feels like for school children to skate on your back remember what it felt like to believe you could have it all you're not so small as you try to be don't hid from me i believe in you i'm damned if i forget a cliche believe in yourself shape both the poles take a look around me cause im staying you are an iceberg and i am the sun but i am not the only one i am not the only one.
