The Burden
I love the things you say
When you’re lying next to me
You help me to explore my dreams
And the places we’ll see
Your smile is all inviting
The creases in your cheeks
Your eyes are so enticing
The whole package; everything
Your beauty is boundless
Your essence unique
Your presence is essential
To make me complete
No hell or high water
Could make me retreat
To a life that’s without you
It would mean my defeat
We could never be equals
You’re as strong as I’m weak
Brace yourself for a windfall
If it’s chaos you seek
I’m the seeker of angels
Not a lost son of thieves
You kneeled down beside me
In my greatest need
I’ll always be grateful
Words we needn’t speak
Our love is what binds us
And that is what’s key
They cannot divide us
Despite the havoc we wreak
It’s what’s inside us
It’s our way, our technique
When you combine us
It’s strength at its peak
It’s the burden we bear
And yet, I seek no relief
I long for the person I’m writing this to.
