Countless nights i spend
A collected mind, turned constantly array and cruel
But it is my chaotic, peaceful heavensent
Because every thought and dreams are about you
It's unorthodox, uncanny
The way you make me question everything i knew about love
It's new, grounding like flightless birds, freeing like doves
You are who makes me unsteady
Oh, how you drive me insane, my desire
Like calm tides turn rogue
Like emotions bottled that shattered, I struggle to control
You are who I'm recklessly, inexplicably, and suddenly drawn to more and more
Like an insect to a funeral pyre
Loving you is finding peace in chaos
Like how dust and salt, thunderstorms will wash
Humbling like trials from the gods
Freeing like screaming out your lungs
Gentle like a mother's words and arms
Complicated like Pandora's Box
You are my peaceful sleep at night
But you are also who makes sleep so hard at times
