I sit and think about you

Wondering if I could only have you

Thinking wow, If I could only be with you

And if I could only hold you

The idea of me wanting you has never been in doubt

Because I’ve never met someone so beautiful inside and out

From eyes , to your skin, to your hair

And deeper into your heart, your soul, your mind, you’re so rare

And around you I can’t fake it, you shine a light on me and I feel so bare

Around you I can’t take it, cause I imagine a future with you and it’s my only care

I might be stupid, or maybe just a little awestruck

But wow, you ******* away

I would write you a letter but with every stroke of my pen

I have to stop and think about you and again and again I stop

Because just the very knowledge of your existence is enough to keep hope alive

The knowledge of the heart that beats in you is enough to keep this fire alive.

To hit the ground running, searching for your love

To never run from it, to promise that on this planet, my heart only beats for you

And I want you, but within me I must fix my lighthouse

Because a storm wages within me and I can’t guide myself home

But I know that once I reach the shore, your love will be there waiting
