When I look at your face,
I see the pain right below
Make up covers scars
only you think you see
imperfections

I see you on the verge of tears
so often, my helplessness becomes anger
You are determined to be strong
To never reach for help, and
You use this to pull away from me
I can tell from the way you breath
Your heartbeat, in your neck

I know you'll read this and think
Of running, flight, stay away
And you'll retreat, won't touch me
But I can tell, when you touch me
And your Other One does

I know you like the night
How it breathes, its breeze through trees
The sound of its creatures, it smallest creak
I see you without the moonlight
Naked, shivering, proud and fight
Its my fault you won't open,
I know this as a truth

As much as you know its not
There is something else, deep inside you, too
It'll take some time, but I believe what I am to you is true
You are the best I have met for secrets, keeping the past untrue
In the end, later, time spins, I'll be here for you

You looked at me and said,
That I write our secrets, to spread
Everyone will know, just intentions to dread
I didn't say anything, because they already know
They're all poets, like you, holy and spread

To me, I don't care, they are no one to know
So what, what they think, unless for your heart they attempt
They are not worth an audience, spectators who didn't pay
This is not entertainment, this is my heart
Absolutely and completely, open

A desperate attempt
Dramatic, singing for you
To gather you back, make amends for my part
To speak your language, so you can learn my heart
Maybe make sense, all these two years apart

But the future is more
Important to me, my life is with you
To honestly be
Because when I see you, I think
Of beauty defined
No matter your scars
No matter your tide

Those are not imperfections
Nor even bumps in the road
I accept them as 'is'
Nothing more
I want you to just open your eyes

See the future, a size
Our love as together, more us than me
Our heart, to forgive, hold and keep tight
Because that would mean, our hearts beat as one
Our eyes see us together, all imperfections made one
I would give anything for this, let you see from me
Because you are beautiful, and I want to be a part of your light
