•I don't have much to offer apart from a heart you've already taken.
I can't grasp just how much, together we have forsaken.
Moments we have had, a small few seconds or minutes seemingly lasting forever.
What I wouldn't do to have one more, to cherish, to savor.
It's Time itself I call upon,
To grant us a small break once, against an onslaught of life's endless challenges.
To hold you is a dream,
To be in your arms, a hallucination I never want to break out of.
As silly as it might seem,
these are just words but they are words behind which stands an array of emotions and feelings.
Which I perhaps might never let go of.
Your smile makes me want to keep it forever enclosed in an enchanted picture.
Never fading and forever still. Putting it in words of a writer I was fond of,
"If rain were people, she was a hurricane and I, a drizzle."
Love is a word too easily used but to me it's a reminder of how I see you.
Every moment, second and minute.
Philophobia, the fear of falling in love.
Is there a name I wonder, for falling out of one?
The sky cries, but for me or you?
My heart's already shattered, I can already hope yours was at least true. Alone I ponder, after all this time
Should I stop wanting you to be mine?
Your every word, brings me solace
Your laughter, the sweetest melody on this planet.
Should I give up, are you too good to be true?
Maybe not, as my entire universe revolves around you.
