It's with a heavy heart that I take on the world today
You have a way about you that I can't quite feel
Holding my breath at arms length,
you continuously intertwine my fragile being
around your fingers
I've played all my cards, games over now
Throw at me what you may;
the hurricane you say lies ahead
I'm here for the long run;
I will stay to weather this storm
No one fills the air around me like you do
The light you continuously exude,
even through the darkness that blinds you
It binds me to you, strangely,
in an endless symphony of notes and emotions,
sprawled onto paper like a sea of ants,
unsure of which way is up
I can't seem to cry over you,
so I cry for you,
in front of you.
