I'm alive,
so alive
that's how I feel
when you can draw me near and I'll stay there
within where I burn
brightest, warm and tenderly
as there,
I am safest.
There is an energy
from this bond,
not Fire and Ice,
but Flame and Home
emitting the essence
of which I use to
defend at every cost,
every corner,
I am there,
call.
Soulmate....
That's an interesting term,
I let it define what you have of me
as we're together
drifting slowly feigning
deep sleep in which
I could meld to what
I hold in my heart and
mind most,
ah soon enough
to the beating of my favorite heart.
I'm alive after
knowing you're fine,
it makes me better,
makes me want to step up
and say what we want,
If you want to hear,
it's a simple sentence
but I'm afraid of being judged,
judged by people I know,
but atleast
you can cure my fears,
my disappointments,
my discontents,
my feeling of emptiness,
within what you are and
give to me,
I am alive,
don't leave and
please keep me alive,
dear,
the one I call soulmate.
Fire has no place that
is given to call its own,
yes there is within it
a soul, its own being,
but within its true
soul is it happy,
yeah, I truly believe
I've seen you call to me
in dreams,
you loved me and now
I know you do.
it's wonderfully pleasant
when you're near,
I burn bright into the
dusk,
but this is for you,
not me,
as long as you're
near I have everything
I'd ever want.
You twist my flame
and make us brighter,
dearly beloved.
I'm safe
safe from going out,
fire is never stable you know
so bare with me,
I won't struggle,
So tell me everything you
need me to be
as I know the place I
am to stand in,
what of this place?
it lies in your heart where I find peace.
I have a question,
I'm serious about it,
but I'm afraid
so when you need to hear
it,
reassure me,
please,
it's been in my mind a while
just because we fit so perfectly.
If anything happens to
you I'll suffocate...
there's not much worth
living for
if no one is there
to keep me alive.
And yes I'll fight for
you,
beautiful girl of mine,
everything is different
when it's done by me
for you.
I love you,
I don't just see you
as an object,
or a vessel,
something to have and then toss aside under a rug,
because I know who you are
and I see you as what calls
me theirs to never let go
and I stay close
because you're my safety
from being smothered
and put out.
I've never wanted anything,
all I need now is you
because people are wrong,
you are,
you are,
as it seems,
my soulmate,
no matter what happens,
I will die for you,
that's my highest honor,
cherish it as a promise
and thank you,
I'm sorry I'm so shy,
but I do love you deeply,
The one who calls me theirs, my dear beautiful beloved.
