the fire can’t touch me
for I have burned one too many times
and the sea can’t harm me
cause I’ve been drowning my whole life
oh but you could rip my heart open darling,
for I’ve never known love before

will I ever be enough for you?
what if I say I am ready to give you every last drop of my blood and soul?
i am ready to give you my all.
will I be enough?
will I ever be your first choice?

i can’t fall asleep
because i’m up thinking
of sleeping next to you
my face hurts from
exaggerated muscle use
twenty-four hours
of smiling and talking
and laughing and wishing
that i was nearer to you

and your voice is a river
the way it flows so freely
and ebbs into my conscious mind
and if i must sleep, then,
meet with me in my dreams
for you can hold me there
and in our own, sacred space,
where we can shed our fears,
we’ll say what we truly mean

cause you’re the only one who
makes my heart skip a beat
and creates butterflies in my stomach
like no one else ever did.

i am the mountain,
you are the sea,
two forces never meant to be.
so i’ll watch from above,
as you crash into me,
wearing down until I’m free.

you are sky, soil and sea
you are fire and also freedom
you are air, light and peace
you are tenderness and also honesty
you are world, simplicity and inmensity
you are infinite and also eternity
you are harmony, courage and certainty
you are life and much more

she will always be
my one true north
the brightest star at my sky
who guides me through all i’m worth

she will always be
my one true north,
my home for every road i take
and my greatest blessing for each time i wake

i wish you'd know how close you are to my heart or how you and my thoughts never part. or how you made me realize that love is one beautiful art. to explain this feeling, how do i even start? i'd start right from the beginning, but i can't remember when i fell in love with you. all I know is that it was instant, and it made me feel like an infant.

i hear your voice, my heart jumps. anytime i think of you, i get a tingling sensation. love is all i have for you, i'd say without hesitation. but what i hate is that we are apart, so distant. i long to hold you, to taste your lips, and to explore every part of you. every day i love you a little bit more.

every day i want you more and more. loving you with hopes you're on the other side loving me as much

it is so easy for me to love you
that it frightens me.
i've never been good at anything
but i've never wanted anything
as much as i want to hold you every waking minute
and every night while i sleep.
the question has ceased to be "how do i love you?"
and has become "how would i ever stop?"

the world is ending tomorrow,
but at least i met you
when things were still soft
before the sky fell into the ocean.

at least i met you in another life.

teach me how to forget, teach
me how to let go of the hope
that it will all come back.

can you teach me how to stop being so nostalgic
for a life we no longer have?

you caused the riot in me,
both sides fighting for the cause
warped until the intensity was cataclysmic.
i let the feelings fuel my passion,
fuel my rage, fuel the insecurity
and let the fire start.

now i am the maiden in the middle,
the embers searing the soles of my feet.
i lost myself there but now i find her again.

you were always beautiful to me,
you were always enough for me,
you were always the one i was so certain about.

her beauty is unique.
she’s gorgeous on the outside,
but her inner beauty is exquisite.

it’s those imperfections that make her so deliciously perfect.
it’s the scars that make her
one of a kind.

i want to take the bits of you i love
and press them like flowers
between the pages of my favorite book.

and i want to take all the scraps
that you deslike in yourself
and display them on my refrigerator
to show you i'm still proud
of the person you are
and the person you are becoming

but most of all, i want to spin you like a globe
and drag my finger across till it stops
to discover the pieces of you
that you've yet to reveal to anyone else

because when you share hidden parts
of yourself with someone else,
you're trusting that person to hold the secret
sections of yout heart and to love the bits
you thought were unlovable.
