Shattered Petals And Broken Things

Of all things I love

Of all the things I love,
And lust for,
There is none like you.

Your very name rolling off my tongue
Excites thoughts off my mind
Like the leaves kissed by dew.

I hold them in with a heart
Weathered by shattered hope
And fear.

But even this rusty cage
Couldn't restrain the pounding heartbeats
I felt whenever you're near.

You make my knees fail
And my walls falter
Like none could ever do.

Of all things I love in this world
Or in the next,
There is none like you.
