Words.
Trapped in my head.
Leaving me for the dead.
Caught in what seemed like a cage.
Always crisp, never did they age.
Crawling around in the muck.
Feeling like I was more than stuck.
But glimpse of light.
Was a less terrifying sight.
A warmth so tangible.
Consumed my heart like a cannibal.
The complex parts you disassemble.
They all changed to something so simple.
These thoughts of you so surreal.
It’s nice to finally be able to feel.
Your eyes with matchless perfection.
Just a glance fills me with instant affection.
Your touch sends shivers down my spine.
A simple feeling yet so divine.
These remarkable feelings I will not hide.
It seems as if they’ll never subside.
So wrap me up in your skin.
It’s just now about to sink in.
The possibilities we have ahead.
Keep me from going to bed.
With you I would stand.
With your heart safely inside my hands.
Trust me with every thought
In the end your every dream would have been sought.
Drive me out.
Past the fields, onto the mountains where we can shout.
It’d be our love, As delicate as a dove.
I asked God for a sign from above.
If we don’t rush this, and decide what we’re all about.
Our time will NEVER run out..
