Everything about you
Is frozen in time
You'll never grow old
From the moment
I first saw you
Never a new line
Grays don't find
A hold in your hair
Little pieces of you
Never to wear
You'll complain
about time
its always unkind
but to me you are frozen
I can't help but stare
Caught in your moment
Tangled in love
Too tight and twined
I don't have a choice
Like my actions not mine
Almost like someone
Cups my mind
I am forced to see you
Past everything unkind
Look through the abyss
Past dragons, devils,
cages and time
I see you the way you want to be
Words, you've written in the past
The woman you are, free and fine
I see all the strings, how they keep you tied
Little emotions, that strive, tear and bind
Addicted to feeling, I want to devour
You scare me at times, fire backdrafted fear
But its nothing to face, feeling love, a presence so near
it holds me to you, a part of you protects
It burns but doesn't consume me
That who you are, pure safety and loved
So I wither the fire, take fury and burn
To see the Phoenix, kiss life against death
