do i love you the wrong way?

is not wanting to lose you

            really all that wrong?

 

is wanting to be by yourside

              really such a crime?

 

is waiting to see you every night

            really that bad?

 

i dont need you to breathe at night,

but your scent makes the nightmares

alright.

 

i dont need you to have a good day,

but your smile makes a cloudy day

cozy and warm.

 

i dont need your hand in mine,

but it does make the walk

easier and bright.

 

i dont need you.

you dont need me.

cant we be together

and let love be kind?

 

two hands we have,

one for each other,

one for the rest of life.

 

is loving you through it all

a pressuring act?

 

is wanting the same

just the delusional way?

 

do

we

not

deserve

a

second

chance

at

light

in

this

dark?
