Relief At Its Best


It seems it's been nearly years since I've held you this close.
I'm shaking so badly, I'm breaking to pieces.
you glue them together, you hold me that much harder.
just so we both know, we're not alone.
if we're bleeding, the smiles fake a thousand things.
the tears you cried and the ones I hid.
the things unspoken, I'm glad we did not.
everything seemed to stop for just that moment ...
and I held it in my hand.
like a butterfly, it was sure to be set free from the beginning.
but that was okay
replaced by the warmth, I swore I'd never feel again.
you were the feelings in my heart.
stirring like I knew no one else could ensue.
you eyes still burned with that same light.
making it so much clearer that you were fighting, so hard.
to keep my hand and my heart.
how could i have been so naive?
Time together does not come often enough.
holding and touching like we did so rapidly.
I swore we could explode
if the emotions ran more violently
by and by i wondered if I was still dreaming.
everything was just too real, I had to be sleeping.
no!
really, it's true, you're still in love with me.
and I've always been in love with you.
try as I might, there's no sense in hiding.
from the weight of devotion pressing my chest.
just look at the way my fingers fit with yours.
hold me the way our bodies conform.
ever since I've been gone I knew there was something lacking.
this made it so clear, almost could not keep from laughing.
at my own stupidity
all joking aside
my heart belongs with you.
