To be the soft you seek

by @simpleton

I wish I could tear the earth apart And rebuild myself Relearn Redo And mold myself to you How do people go mad in love? Do crazy things Such naivety Such purity I wish to lose my senses For your warmth But I’ve already been made Hard and cold I know not to get too close to the flames My tongue has been trained Clear and rational I wish I could lose my senses I wish I could blur the boundaries in my head Unlearn the discomfort of having a sky I want you to know That I want to For you But I don’t know how How to give you What I don’t have
