My North Star

by jackie-harrington

You take my breath away You sweep my feet out from under me You catch me by surprise When I look in your eyes And I see That you believe in me Want me to succeed You freeze all of the pain that is hibernating in my heart You melt me down until you see nothing but emotion Give me potion That shows my weaknesses Forcing me to turn them into strengths And fate has brought you to me Just keep smiling and I promise you'll never lose me You know exactly what to say to bring me out of my dark place And that's not easy Ask anybody who knows me You make my pain subside And I realize That I'm alive when you are near me But you don't even see past the wall that's called friendship You have all these dudes talking to you But I'll treat you like a princess I want to defend your honor Harbor all the feelings I have And write so they can make sense Because honestly you've taken my sense of direction My moral compass leads directly to you Throw that thing in the garbage and I'll still go directly to you You see you might not see that I believe in you and me And if there is a you and me I swear to love you unconditionally You have my head spinning And in my dizziness I only see you You are the bright light that brings me out of the fog You are my North Star I look at you And I'm home
