If I asked you to hold me against you would you do it? Would you take me in your arms and pull me against you where my head just reached your chest and I could hear the still beating of your strong heart? If I asked you to kiss me softly would you listen? Would you lift my chin to yours and softly lay your lips upon mine for that moment in time? If I asked you to tell me if you loved me could you do it? Could you be honest with your heart and I and lay bare your soul even if you knew it would hurt me? If I asked you to stay the night would you heed my request? Would you lay with me and treat me as though I was yours until the end of time itself? If I asked you to never leave would you stay? Would you look into my eyes and see the heart that lies within and choose to comfort it? No...no I don't believe you would. You see, we're from two different worlds you and me. You see the lovesick puppy of a girl standing before you with the sad puppy-dog eyes. You see someone who can't see the truth beyond your lies. You see someone who in truth isn't a woman or anything more. Just another broken heart that's come knocking on your door. But me....I see a man who showed me kindness when I had nowhere else to turn. I see such sweet redemption in your soul. You don't feel the same for me as I do for you today. You are the one that lights the fire in my heart, you're the one that makes my soul feel like it has wings. You're the one that gives my voice it's will to sing. You are my inspiration and though I'm crying here before you I can only know you're wishing you hadn't helped me at all. Though fate is pinned against us and I'm not the one you want, I'll still meet you in my dreams and I'll never let you go. You were the part of me that will never really be whole. |
