something deeper

I want to show you something deeper
I want to take you in
and nurse your heart back to health.
You make my soul fly,
fly beyond this cursed earth
to the heavens
where I’ll find freedom in my utopian romance
by your side.

I want to say thank you with everything I am
for waking my spirit.
I want you to wrap yourself around my body
and never let go.
I want to show you what we could be,
to teach you a painless love
where you don’t have to fear the ache
and I will kiss the tears away
if you just say the word.
I will save you.

I’ve always been the one who spoke in love songs
but now I find you singing them to me
and I find I’m melting into you.
I feel like a child again.
as you hold me in your arms
I make your chest my pillow
and it feels like home.
So here is where I will stay
for as long as you will let me.
I will lay with you forever
if you’ll only let me love you.
Be my everything.
