My bones seemed to have toppled over one another Forcing me to fall to my knees The quivering and trembling in my finger tips Traveled a vibrating sensation to my lips That constant thrumming inside of my arteries Harmonizes with the pounding in my heart Look at what you do to me in such a short amount of time You can steal the air I breathe from my lungs And replace it with a genuine kiss My whole perspective on a once oblique world Was painted over with colors from my heart and your soul All the sensations that shoot right through me Were shot by an arrow with hands that caress and cherish That warming bonfire that lies within my bare chest Was kindled by a hand that was willing to reach out to me Never did I conceive that the haze could be lifted Like a veil that has blocked my vision for years I never bore the thought that it can be you and me That I could love, be loved, and not be naive All labeled me to be nothing but a foolish girl With all her hopes and dreams out on cloud nine But I consider myself not a foolish lover But a person who can love throughout the impossible odds I did not know this person was real That my body was telling me something The feelings and emotions that flow through me Are all something considered unconditional You lifted me out of the ashes I wept in And told me that new life will branch out from the old The heart-ache and weeping from constant mistakes Is only the fertilizer for the love that will continue to grow Your kind words and gentle hands Keep these feelings inside alive and thriving You water my roses with such sympathy and care Despite all of our previous affairs So my bones will still shake and my fingers will always tremble When my gaze meets with yours
