I don't know that my blackened lungs still stretch because they love me back or if that's why my ruptured heart still thumps like that I just know I'd be lifeless without the same way I'd love life less without you Loving intently and at the risk of never having another someone love me again because your eyes say you don't your lips say you can't and you only keep feelings for a man you've never met The perfect love... a takes me dancing til my feet hurt for his strong hands reminds me I'm adored because it crosses his mind again and again cooks when I'm too tired to be wined and dined two legs to stand on love I've watched the opera from your vantage point and the fool who portrays me killed off before the third act How many anxious moments have you sat through rooting for my demise... loving intently on a hope and a prayer scene after life shattering scene? Flawed love... a he can't catch me if I fall or fall on hard times hold me tightly when life won't let up or hold my hand to put the world on notice can't be seen in public like that no legs to stand on love I don't know that your smile thrives behind my half dead eyes because they love me back or if that's why my gut still fellowships with my soul like that I just know enough to eat pride before the reasoning expires the same way I treasure my gifts, I know... at the risk of sounding redundant You'll always be the only other someone I'll ever need to love me again but your body screams yes your heart just won't and you only harbor meaningful emotion for a man you've never met The perfect love... fantastic with the kids, mine and his ambitious stud in the boardroom and the bedroom traveling the world taking our show on tour introduce him to my father two legs to stand on love I'm still taller than my limitations I'll massage your pain away with all the right things to say the way you swore only I can catch you if you fall for me again hold you down on your way up, I know... at the risk of sounding like a contradiction and romance your fam from a beautifully realistic vantage point Love! The altar Love! and crush our first dance... legs or no
