the eros of her

I never believed in love till there was her

Always her

I never believed in myself till there was her

Always her

The stars in the sky that I couldn’t reach

From all the way down here in the mud

The beauty that I couldn’t reflect

The coldness in my chest

Thawed out

This beating inside of me

I’d forgotten this feeling

It was her

Always her

Lips soft like sunshine

With gentle eyes that pierced my very being

A gentle heart, accepting and warm

A hand outstretched

Welcoming

Like a summer night with laughter

She smelled like home

I only had this darkness

And I couldn’t see the way

Till there was her

Always her

She doesn’t see it

I only let her see what I want her to see

Because these precious feelings

She could never

Never love a person like me

So I scream into the void

With this newly found heart of mine

Love me, only me

See me, only me

But for her I will keep these feelings in me

Deep down, I’ll fill in all the cracks with her

Always her

But she’ll never know

What I wouldn’t do for her

No matter what I feel

She will always be the light

And it’ll always be her

Always her.
