I hold the flames with my left hand
Whilst I mould you with my right
So you may be the deity I planned
A masterpiece, a perfect sight.
Into Olympus I carve you
You are a Muse, a golden fleece
A tradition polished until fresh and new
All that I that I seek, my missing piece.
I shall fight for you my dear,
For your ambrosia, I shall quest
Challenge me, send me far or near
Put my loyalty to the extreme test.
Let me be your hero, my love
I will paint you in the stars
We will travel past clouds and far above
We will look down on our love from afar.
For I have served many  gods
Romanced with many a goddess
But Cupid cannot enhance you
For you, I would trade my immortality
You are my heaven upon earth

I want to show my true colours
Paint my skin with pictures and words
Pierce it with dazzling gems
Transform it into a bold peacock
With hues of purple and blue.
Grow my hair wild and free
Warming me through winter nights.
I want to peruse my desired agenda
Quit the day job, see the world,
Fall in love, find myself.
I want to build a nest for my love
Decorate it with the fruit of our travels
And welcome in infants
Spend my days scribbling away
Doodling in cheap note pads
Filled with the greatest of treasures.
I want walls filled with photos
Memoirs of the love I have seen
Reminders of all the beauty of the world.
I want my scars to heal, to be forgotten
Replaced by traces of passionate kisses
Gifts that leave me content and enlightened.
I want to feel the warmth of my daydream
Surrounding my reality, dictating my days
I want to live a simple life, nothing grand
I want to show my true colours.
