The world outside is a scary place,
so why not come inside?
To the comfort of being home while my arms wrap around you
So when the screams cloud your mind
you may lay your head upon my chest and listen,
to the steady beating of my heart and
to the soft words that pour out my lips.
Let me paint the bigger picture for you and show you what my mind envisions for the both of us.
Let me introduce you to the word fate, as I believe that’s what brought us together.
From a year of suffering and destroying ourselves trying to love another.
Our shattered souls found each other in this realm and mended into one.
Let me replace the teddy bear you refuse to sleep without
Allow me to be the reason you can’t spend a single night alone
Give me the chance to wrap my arms around you when the world begins erupting outside.
When the rain begins to pour and the dark skies begin to light up,
let my smile  mimic the sun
and clear up the skies.
Let my arms be the rays that shine down upon your body and warm you up
Let my voice be the wind to blow away the dust in your eyes
Outside is too gruesome
so just stay inside
Let my body be the vessel you can relax in
let my soul be the palms to catch your tears.
So that when i throw them in the air
We are showered down by stardust
Let my heart be the reason you aren’t afraid to love again
So when the world is too scary outside
and your fears begin crawling upon your skin
why don’t you let me be your home
and take a step inside?
