Whisper you mean it
Say you'll stay
Hold my hand 'til brighter days

Days of darkness
I thought have long ended
The journey to madness
In this world I have burdened

Melancholy has consumed me
The storm brewing inside
Has gotten stronger, can't you see?
The damage done, one cannot hide.

Send comfort, build a shelter
For someone who is lost
Build something better
Than what was destroyed, no matter the cost.

Love yet indescribable
has various meanings

Love although unseen
can be shown
and expressed
in many ways

however

*it still isn't enough

You are an oxymoron;
happy and sad,
bittersweet,
a fine mess,
and clearly misunderstood.

Being with you
is sweet torture
that leaves me
wanting more.

kiss me once more
with the same intensity
and gentleness

hold me once more
wrap your arms around me
as i wrap mine around you

sing to me once more
and i'll be singing with you
even though we're out of tune

hold my hand one more
fill the spaces
between my fingers

lie with me once more
let the silence consume us
make me feel safe

let me listen to the beating of your heart
that was awaken by me
