Leaving The Lion's Den

Beautiful, sad, and true Just this little story of me and you It's always over before you know it Your laugh, your smile, I once was sure to commit The beginning, not sure of its start Not once did I imagine we could ever part Too perfect and too good to be true My mind will never forget or get over you I say deep inside I know you will return But my heart, oh, how it slowly continues to burn I have never known love, only hate But it's you, the way, and I can just see it in your face Quite sure about where my heart stands Your soft, smooth skin I feel especially in the palms and tips of my hands Your warmth is always where I long to be The artistic wonder of your body always reassures me Out of the seemingly infinite amount of women There's just one, your elegance, I am sure to win Your melodic, finely tuned voice is always on my mind Your heart-shaped face and flawless smile always sends shivers down my spine One has to stop and stare as your kind is quite rare You are every boy's dream, his life he gives to you forever to share Your fire is my desire, my passion for you I have no shame Your being, your hair and outline in the dark is like a hungry lion I will never tame Unleashed, please go freely and teach yourself to learn For I wait, perhaps one day, you will happily return If we see each other again, in love, under the sun It will be only because of the reason that you are and I am the one
