I’m well aware of the stupidity of ‘falling in love’ Text, talk, date and mutual disappointments- We’ve all been there, done that. This time, let’s go all the long way to forever I’m tired of having to stitch my heart again on my sleeves, love, I’m too tired to mope around and weep, Look at my eyes while I ask with a smile, Will you be mine to keep? If you wish so I’ll take a break from my prosaic presence. Let me whisper into your ears- Oh my dear, you’re a sacred dream The only God at my altar, my only King, The strength of your ardent soul’s embrace Exhilarates me in unspeakable ways. Your smouldering eyes beckon me to stare We look deep in our hearts, and our souls are laid bare. Roses bloom as our fingers intertwine, I become yours and you become mine- Or, wait, are you too smart for my art? Or too broken perhaps. Sweet words sound soothing, But I know too well, don't I? How swiftly they lose their sweetness And turn into twisted jokes, Reverberating in the empty chambers of the heart at 3 a.m. When I end up inevitably alone When the darkness is quiet, and everyone’s long gone Only the moon shining down on me through the window Softly caressing me and my pain. So, I ask again, Before I tie up my heart and lock it to sleep, Will you love me whole, Will you be mine to keep?
