i love you

i love you

i say it now

i know i love you

but i don't know how

i feel a warmth

one of love

i love you

i love you

i'll say it again

and then i'll show

you somehow

somehow you'll see



i love you

i love you

it has to be

i know you do

you love me

say it aloud

i want to hear it

please say it now

my god i love you

love you so

please say its mutual

then please, please show

you hold the parts

please, oh god, please

you hold my heart



i love you so

why do you tremble

you dont love me so

my earth begins to crumble

i thought you felt

the same beat of love

but now you've shattered

that brightness above

now i shiver

in the cold of dark

this is where i live

with my broken heart

a slight pulse

somehow still alive

i still dont know

why it strives

for this life

this cold existance

why does it beat

this meaningless instance



no longer warm

now so alone

i bar myself

in my new home

sheltered from lies

sheltered from love

closed to the eyes

to those even above...
