SLAP ME WITH YOUR WORD OF VALIDATION AND COMMITMENT
BECAUSE SURELY YOUR HARSH WORDS OF REASSURANCE
WILL BE BETTER
THAN THE LONELINESS
I CAUSE MYSELF
Chano Williams May 2014
More than a cloudless sky filled with falling stars
More than a s­unny day while driving in my car
More than standing at the tip of­ a waterfall mist
Perhaps, even more than my very first kiss,
You­’re still more amazing than any of this
Out of everything beautif­ul, you the top list
More than the sight of a haloed full moon
Mo­re than a great date not ending too soon
More than a cool breeze ­on a hot, sandy coast
Maybe more than giving the perfect wedding ­toast
Thoughts of having you bring me even more hope
Enough so fo­r me to discard my telescope
I know I’ve found my star I was sear­ching for
Confident I’m the water my flower’s thirsting for
You f­eel better than relief from an open sore
Your sound is superior t­o a faultless music score
I can’t imagine you not filling my ever­y thought
You’re everything that anyone has ever sought
You mean ­more than anything I’ve ever bought
Some would dispose of you wit­hout knowing the cost
I’m so glad I’m not them; I know greatness ­when I see it
A king is only a king once the queen has been seate­d
Yeah, I know my place, but I won’t remind you of yours
Though, ­I will remind you of what our future has in store
Our destination­ can be whatever we think it should
We can discover countries or ­explore our backwoods
Whichever course we choose, as long as it’s­ together,
It’s still perfect enough that only heaven could be be­tter

I said I never liked commitment , I've said it half my life .

When you first met me I made it clear I was bitter and would only use you for the night..

You took me on broken and bruised and picked me up piece by piece .

I told you you would cut yourself I will most defiantly leave.

You looked at me and said it was okay because you needed new scars.

You picked me up bit by bit , cut yourself on the shattered parts.

Told me you loved me every day and every night.

You never really knew if I heard you so you made sure to say it twice.

Commitment was never for me you would always here me say.

But you never quite understood how I could my ink my skin but not let you stay.

When I like a song
I'll play it a hundred thousand times
And when that's done,
I'll avoid it like the plague,
Skipping it on my iPod.

When I like a craft
I'll put my all in it,
And when that's done,
I'll slowly lose interest,
Finding another hobby.

I'm fickle-minded
Can't make up my mind,
Jumping from one thing
To the next.

That's why
I've never told you that
I love you.
I have commitment issues, really.
When all falls into shadow
And fire burns the sky
When smoke and blood
Stain sky and stream
Still I will be at your side

When war comes crashing on the door
And battle scars the land
When fear and death march from their gate
They will march upon us
Hand in hand

When monsters bellow from the depths
When all seems lost to fear
Should armies surround and besiege
When the sun goes black with arrows
I will hold you ever near
