The Wind
i took you for granted, i took me for granted,
happiness sprouts like the trees we never planted,
love is a ticking time bomb of sunken sorrow, of a deep depression,
love can hold down the pain, but it's a short term, short lived suppression,
when i die, the love i give dies as well,
you, a speck of heaven in an omnipresent hell,
i wish i was better, wish i could give you even the small things you desire,
wish i could repay you somehow, for raising my sinking heart higher,
you possess a priceless intelligence, unheard of in formal education,
i was un-liftable, and you lifted me - you're Mother Earth, i'm precipitation,
you summon my immense joy within, i cry devastated knowing it will end,
it's a nightmare, a daymare, a perception i desperately try to bend,
you've given me absolutely everything i've ever wanted,
i ache for you, stronger than evil spirits aching for the haunted,
i've failed to see until now, you're a diamond surrounded by cliches,
breaking through my clouds of darkness, you're always the first sun rays,
a goddess of saintly love, no exaggeration, no misnomer, no bribe,
these words pale in comparison to what they attempt to describe,
i was scared to die before, because i hadn't met you,
now i'm terrified to go, for now it's you that i've met,
you deserve the world - you've earned the universe,
my last image will be of you, for without it there is nothing worse...
