There must be a reason
for which clichés
became clichés.
Those words and the way they intertwine
must’ve resonated with so many people
as to wear them out and lose their meaning.

But, they have not lost anything
because words don’t decay;
they are infinite.
So, believe me when I say
that I don’t want to live another moment
without you.

Please listen, I’m telling the truth
when I whisper that my heart
has finally found a home with you,
and that you are the best thing
that’s ever belonged to me,
and that I’m jealous of you

half as much as the King is for His creation,
and believe me, that’s more than enough.
Please, understand that I believe
that clichés haven’t lost their depth.
So, when I say I would give you everything,
I mean it with all that I am.
