I'll be your lullaby, when your mind won't let you sleep,
I'll be your blanket, when you're cold,
I'll be your home, when you're homesick,
I'll be your mirror, when aren't sure what you look like,
I'll be your shadow, when you need a quiet presence,
I'll be your shoulder, when you want a minute to rest your head,
I'll be your map, when you feel lost,
I'll be your music, when you want to shut everything out,
I'll be your drug, when you want to let loose,
I'll be your cloak, when you feel naked,
I'll be your smile, when you can't remember how,
I'll be your jazz, when you want to jive,
I'll be your door, when you need an out,
I'll be your everything I can be, I'll be

Can you not see -
That I'm not blind?

And when you told me about all the things you love,
With mad passion in your eyes,
I fell in love with you

And when you shared your thoughts,
Too private for small talk,
I fell in love with you

And when you placed your responsibilities over your self,
Too demanding for anyone to fulfil,
I fell in love with you

And when you loved,
Loved a stray dog, affectionately working your fingers on his neck,
I fell in love with you

And when you hid your pain,
Masked brilliantly in your laugh, for no naked eye to suspect,
I fell in love with you

And when you sang Chasing Cars,
Humming, unconcerned with the passing traffic,
I fell in love with you

And when you told me about your day,
From the big accomplishments, to the tiny, gorgeous observations,
I fell in love with you

And when Ed Sheeran sang All of the Stars,
Thinking all I wanted was nothing more, than to see you walking in that door,
I fell in love with you

And when they told me how amazing you are,
People unexposed to even a fifth of your brilliance;
Privileged,
I fell in love with you

And a million other times,
In a thousand other moments,
Irrespective of intent,
Forever more,
I fell in love with you

So it's over,
The time we had is gone,
Now we're over,
The time of my life is gone,
Stop it if you can?
Would it be a lot?
Maybe you already gave it all you've got,
Is it possible now?
Can it be back some how?
It's lost in the recesses of your memory,
A faint town of what we used to be,
Lost in the alleyways if this new address,
I guess it's over
The time we had is gone

It is going to end,
I am going to cry,
Not because it's over,
But because we didn't try

Too pure to be touched,
Too fragile to be loved,
Too perfect to be desired,
Too good to be true
...**you

I look for you,
All day long,
In places where you used to be,
But you're not at them anymore,
Except in the goosebumps on my arms, on thinking of you,
Except in the tears that refuse to roll down,  much like you,
Except in the pages I've filled, with insufficient glorifications of you,
Except in my mind, where logic and thought have been replaced by you,
Except in my heart, that keeps me alive, but beats for you
I look for you,
All day long,
In places where you used to be,
But you elude,
And I find you,
*Only in me
