Never

Such a far way from home,
Such a place I've never known.
I've never seen the NY sun,
Never the Golden Gates have I run.
Though if I never see such sights,
I'm glad I saw the one in your eyes.
Never have I steeled the night against my fears.
Though I never do; you stay my tears.
At bay, I rest now that you keep me safe.
For never before did I have a place.
Never have I seen the light of 21 birthday candles.
Though 21 pilot lights could not light my dead heart.
Entangled by fear I rest now.
For I was never brave enough to tell you how.
Much fear I have inside.
For I did not need to be brave for two.
But now I do because I have you.
Before you I was hardly happy, I walked though Hell.
Now that I'm out I want to kill myself--indulgence.
For I want to be selfless for you.
Tell you true.
Be the man you want me to.
Be there for you is my aim.
To win a loosing game.
To make it as a couple.
To make one person loved by double.
For coming together with someone is something I've never done.
Never before have I held out my heart.
So far apart from by body.
So please tell me.
You mean to catch it.
It's up to you.
To do, that which will not let it fall.
To shatter the wall that kept me from loving is what you've done.
Turned my heart upside down.
As it turns out my frown is also upside down.
Now, I will let you know.
Never have I been so committed to someone.
Now look and see what your love has done.
For never before has these words been true when I say again and again.
What I myself as a man.
Must know in my heart.
To be able to start.
What I must call instinct.
To let you know fear is not here.
When I say I want to be linked.
To you; I am yours.
Never to be removed.
For my love is not returnable.
Never before have I ever taken the plunge.
Though I must tell you, I'll never need another for it is you I love.
Never have I been kissed so sweetly.
So soft are your lips against mine.
Never have I lost track of so much time.
My smile has never been so wide.
Never so honest.
Its happy, as if my soul is in my mouth.
I've been wanting you the longest.
Than any other person.
For you my love are worth it.
Never did I know what love is.
Not before I met you.
Never has my heart, so badly wanted to live.
When my lips touch yours.
Never before have I ever wanted something so badly.
Never before has someone made me so happy.
Never have I loved so true.
For what I never had before, was you.

~I love you.
