my heart twists in such throes
for my love of you
and I smile through the joy and the pain
everywhere for me you exist
where does this strength that makes me feel so weak
well up from within
your eyes could light up a thousand skies
and all just in my heart
your kisses could warm long since dead limbs
and whatever else needed your warmth
I am lost in the ache of your words
I feel you so much sometimes it hurts
and I'm so scared sometimes that you might go away
I want you to be so, so happy
as you deserve that more than anyone else I know
and yet how would that make me feel
if another took you so gloriously away
and yet how would I feel if you sacrificed your future
waiting for me
it hurts either way I think of it
there has to be a way for us yet discovered
why else would God allow such a love to bloom
you are a dream of a man
I before never really knew
surely the internet isn't to be our only medium
love can be so ferocious
what I wouldn't do just to keep that lovely smile
forever lifted upon your cheeks
oh habibty of mine
you don't know what dragons I have sleighed in my dreams
to get to you
one day perhaps I can tell you
say on our honey moon
if you will have me that is
I just wanted you to have these words
as the poet in me can express this scary beautiful
feeling of falling far better than I ever could
hope to try to do
and this was my way to hold you to my heart
for just a moment longer...............
