I want it to be for you, I want to write to you.
To let you know you never leave my mind,
Each heartbeat of mine depends on you.
I am because you are, our fates are intertwined.
I live because you live, it's true.
I dream and desire you every moment of day,
In every abyss of night, I think of you.
I dream of your warmth, your daring ways.
Of your sorrow and torments, I touch it still,
Of every kiss I couldn't give,
Every caress I couldn't feel, it seems.
My lips, body, and soul to you I'd give.
Perhaps it was always so, from the start.
The stars know how often I've spoken of you,
How many times I've cried your name, my heart
Pierced with pain, my insides torn through.
How many times I wanted to shout with all my might
That I love you, I love you, I love you, I'll never lie
Of saying it, of showing you're my all, my light,
You're my reason to live, my only desire.
All I want from this life is you, nothing more.
I could have all riches, all freedoms to enjoy,
But without you by my side, what's it all for?
Without you, what's left but to destroy?
I see my future, I see it loom,
I see you're not there, and I'm undone.
I crumble into pieces, sealed to doom.
I've tried to forget you, to be lost, to run.
But I only lost myself, it's clear.
And you haven't come to find me.
I understand why you don't, why you steer away.
Though I pushed you, it pains me.
It destroys me, it burns me through.
I wish I could tell you all will be fine,
To forgive me and return, start anew.
To finally achieve what we wanted for so long, divine.
So many sleepless nights, so much laughter
Hidden between pillows, passion between lines.
God, I blush just thinking of it after.
How could I do that to us? How could I resign?
How could you think I'd ever stop loving you?
I have you under my skin, deep in my bones,
Stuck in my chest, breathing my air so true,
Stealing my thoughts, depraving my dreams, my moans.
Are you okay without me? Do you still think of me?
I hope you do. I hope you haven't forgotten so easily.
I hope you wait for me, want me, forgive me.
I hope you love me, completely and freely.
