Love I find is a mystical word used often by those ignorant of its profound meaning.
Love is giving yourself away,
And doing so regardless of if you get anything back or not.
Attraction, yes, is one ingredient in a romantic love
But if you cannot say, beyond a shadow of a passing doubt, I would lay down my life for this person no matter what.
Then it’s not true love.

I know what I felt
A string tied from your heart to mine
That is the only explanation
For why I can’t get you off my mind
The strings are tugging on each other
They’re stretching too far
That is why
I want to be where you are

He walks back in forth in my heart like a specter
Quietly haunting neglected halls of affection
I see him in a mirror and he is gone
I see him in shadows then he disappears
He’s haunting me

The deeper his feelings for her grew
The further he pulled away
For these were feelings that he had learned early on
Will break you completely

His magnetism was like the sun
So many adored him, many surrounded him
I find myself a mystified little planet
Involuntarily drawn to him
A dancer in the chorus line promenading around him
But though I am just another pulled in by his gravity
I’m so happy to bask in his warm light,
Yes I’m so happy to just be near him
I love him.

She was like the sun
Warm
Healing
Life giving
But she also burned a few unfortunate souls

Sometimes becoming an angel
Means you gotta go through a little hell
