I want to be your first,
Not your last.

Your compassion is all I'm asking for
On my lowest and highest days.

When I'm falling apart late in the night
Can you be there to put me together
And make me whole?

When i'm feeling happy as can be
Can you be by my side
To make my smile even brighter?

Because I would surely do the same for you.

I want to be your only,
Not just another one.

Your love is all I'm asking for
Bad times and good.

When we have fights
Over the dumbest things
Can you be there to forgive?

When it's a lazy summer night
And we are laying together
Can you be there to savor the moment?

Because I would surely do the same for you.

I want to be your sun,
Not just another star.

Being without you
Is like being without food or water.
Or without air to breathe.

You're essential.
Because without you
There's only a void.

Your absence brings emptiness.
A feeling of crushed hope,
And broken hearts.

Because when you're absent from me,
The only thought that comes to mind
Is if you feel the same vacancy.

The most comfortable silence
Is the silence shared with someone          

Someone who your heart beats for,  
Someone who only has eyes for you.

When you're with that person  
And things are quiet

Words aren't needed
But when you desire words
  
They can be spoken,
Heard and understood.

Silence can mean many things,
It doesn't always mean you're alone.

The silence represents a connection,
A deep connection with someone

That can't be recreated.

The thunder is loud because it demands to be heard,
the lightening flashes to get peoples attention
and when no one hears it it cries because it's being ignored.

Over the past few months
I've realized where my home is
My home is in your arms
Safe and secure
Guarded by your warmth
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is with you.
