Lovers Lament
|
we met as friends
and you helped get me together
now we're lovers as well
and all the hell i went through
before you
was just a test of fire
a mire i had to fight against
now you light the dark corners of my heart
with a love that redeems my innocence
it seems i will never get enough of you
your smile, your acceptance, your strength
not just someone trying to change me
to who they'd like me to be
you've shown me a world devoid of judgement
a girl who might grow to deserve all of this
with each kiss i see the look in your eyes
the bliss of just being near me
you touch me like i am perfection
not the defect i've always assumed that i am
i've found a man that will move mountains just for a look that lights up my eyes
and even on our worst days i see only blue skies
you hold me with your soul
and i find the wholeness i've been lacking
we were lovers in another life
always waiting to find each other
and come alive again with each softly spoken word
each kiss, each caress
the sweetness of your lips sends me reeling
i know i'll never have this feeling again
so hold tight to me MY knight
these fights and battles will soon be done
look at all we've fought through already and won
just to be together
ours is a bond that cannot be severed or sabotaged
try as they may
each day i spend with you
i grow more deaf to the things they say
it's really you and i against the world
against all odds we've perservered
i pray to all the gods that no matter what happens,
i always end up here
wrapped in your arms, safe from harm
completely and madly in love.
-for my ACE of hearts
