Within the Shadows

Mi Amor : The Sweetness of My Life

every once in a while

i remember the good old days

when we first met

my heart a difficult maze

but you solved this puzzle

with warmth and understanding

i thought it was all a dream

too good to be true

i didn't want to wake up from this slumber

after a very long time

i felt accepted

for who i was

you touched my heart

with your beauty galore

and left me wanting more and more

you were enchanting

in every sense of the word

your eyes held the secrets of the universe

your laugh became the password

of my dream world

we were already too far gone

when i realised it was all real

and the sparks i felt

made my cold heart melt

i was falling and drowning

you captured my heart without a warning

your touch made my heart flutter

you made me forget all my blunders

you brought out the best of me

you saw right through my pathetic facade

you made the world a better place

you made me feel better

you put up through all my mess

what am i without you love, take a guess

you were the glue for my broken heart

you fixed me, fixed all my parts

you made my heart beat fast

i promised you, you'd be my last

your name became my chant

your desires made me pant

the time we spent apart became scant

i got lost in your arms

so how could i stay apart

baby, you stole my heart

you were the cheese in my macaroni

the horizon to my sky

the water to my ocean

the skip in my step

baby you were a keeper

And i, a lonesome seeker

you gave me a reason to live

the power of our love

made everything seem fine

it gave me hope

of a life i'd only ever dreamt of

i saw the world through your eyes

and suddenly it didn't seem so messed up

the glint in your eyes

strengthened our ties

with the sparkle in your soul

you made me feel whole

with the strength in your heart

you threw at me your dart

and travelled all my parts

you broke down my walls

every movement

resembling beauty and grace

just like the victoria falls

the fire in your touch

burned me down

i felt close to your heart

even when miles apart

yes, our love was such

you were the chandler to my monica

the magic to my wand

your honest words shocked me to my core

i thought i could love you no more

your smile made my heart burst

the day you left me was the worst

how will i ever be able to live again

when i'm not with you i'm in so much pain

you took my heart

you took my soul

you left me alone

broken and cold

i cried like a baby

tears streaming down my face

i saw you leave

it broke my heart

tore me apart

it rocked my world

shattered me whole

you came like a tidal wave

making everything in my life shake

exquisite exhilarating exciting

it was, to be with you

it felt cold, hard and toxic

to live without you

my days filled with gloom

i wished for my doom

but your voice inside my head

didn't leave any chance for protests

the bloody saintly things you said

i fell for that crap, even though i felt half dead

but damn you, it worked

you give me strength

even when you're not here

you give me comfort

without actually being near

so i'll hold you close

forever

in my heart

and in my soul

you were diamond

you were gold

you were music

to my soul

you were the queen of my heart

you are the queen of my heart

and i'm ready to be your slave

if that's what it takes

for us to be together again

baby please save me again.
