Appear

In the quiet of the night, when your lingered shadow starts to play, I find myself lost in my thought, drifting further away, your laughter repeats in my mind, it’s something so sweet, with ever passing moment, I can hear my heart beat, your company, the one thing that pulls me from the dark, but in this quiet affection, I fear I’ve lost my spark,  with every glance, I loose a piece, a small bit of my soul, but in the warmth of your arms, once again you made me whole, when the room is quiet I wandered through our memories, so pure and true, but the lines of who I am, begin to blur with you, I crave your existence, the comfort of your touch, yet in this broken heart, it’s you I need so much, no matter how much it breaks me, let me lose myself in you, with every whispered sigh, no matter how much it hurts me I’d choose you every time, in the depths of this devotion, there’s a strange feeling of delight, for loving you feels like coming home at night, though pieces of me scatter, like the leaves start to breeze, I’d gather them all together, because you are my hearts ease, in the distance of longing filled with every last bit of hope, I’ll hold you close forever, in loves eternal scope, so here I stand, painted in your grace, and I might be losing me, but I found my rightful place, so here I am where shadows dance an weave, knowing all I truly want is for you love me, in every heart beat, and every frosty breath, it all fills up the space, I might be losing pieces of myself, but I found my saving grace, in this beautiful battle, where I am  home and free, in every lasting life, I choose you to be with me, for you, are what I consider home to be, in the end, it doesn’t matter if I fade into the night, for loving you always felt right, so once more let me lose myself in you, and watch the world fade away, sometime it will take me with it, but in my arms is where you will stay, forever under the stars, when pieces of me start to disappear, but like a magician, around you they re appear,
