Falling into you

Weakness becomes me in my eyes,

fallen to rise I stand for life undone.

Seeing the faces before me smiling,

for what I can’t comprehend anyway.

I waited for your kiss in my soul,

purging all the sorrow with a single look.

Captivate my life in your arms tonight,

see me for who I truly am.

A of the fears that once crushed me,

entombed by your grasp on hope.

To find you there my dream for forever,

expecting nothing, needing your light.

Here is my heart please don’t break it,

bound in shame I bare all for you.

Taken apart by the pieces left behind,

wanting to know you even more than myself.

A mindful expression painting tears now dry,

passion within, desire left as one.

How I feel when with you beautiful,

the way you see me devours my soul.

I wonder why we wander this realm,

passing time by without time to hold.

Comfort me with the touch only you can make,

blend into me your tears your life.

Swimming towards the destination creation,

in one love you show me I am alive.

Taking breaths just to fade away with you,

calling ghostly pictures of what we are.

No sorrow left to break me, already gone,

in light we share the shadows we crave.

Insatiable touch walking away to be free,

as we are we all lights fade away from our eyes.

Cruelty shaped by limbo crying for just this,

to love, to live, to mean something at all.
