The love those many foolish ones have once shown you,
Is but a grain of sand, upon a beach.
My love to you is like a rose.
So tender, gentle even.
Yet so lethal.
Cruel to the world, that hurts you.
But to me, you are my universe.
To hear your sweet voice.
Is but a melody.
Your touch,
Is a song I cannot erase from my mind.
Greedy of me to always want more.
Always needing more.
But keeping quiet.
You're my only view in a pair of glasses.
The rest is a blur.
Going unnoticed but my small mind.
You are my only sight.
My only love.
My only need.
Is your happiness.
It makes me drugged.
It takes me away.
It steals my breath like a thief of the night.
So contagious is your smile, making me lazily drunken.
