sunset

Maybe you're the result of all the love I never got

All the love I ever lacked once and the ones I lent and forgot

The hands who borrowed it from me and the fingers who scrapped my whole heart

Left me in pieces you found pretty and scarred

You picked them up, you lit them with your touch

Now I believe I have become someone I never believed I could love.

When the storms blew up all my haven

When they corroded all my memories and made me hollow with my broken

You crept up to me like a vine to it's seeker

Decorating my torn roof with it's creases

Now it sits upon me like a chain to the stars

Binding me to the night like there's nothing more beautiful than apart

From my hurting memories to starry steps towards you

I've rented out all my left space to get shadowed by your light all through.

I know it's not a coincidence, neither a story meant to be talked about

It's just cute in it's own way how you mean to break my heart

From asking to leave to never saying more than a paragraph

How can I express in words this hurts affectionately more than your laugh.

I skip some nights to dream a day with you

Your hands in mine and my eyes on you

And I say some things I'd never dare to say out loud

Kiss your frame and paint you in a red shroud

All mine, all surreal like the dream I could never come out of

You're the only thing who can take me out of this burial from my own clout.

But it's going to last as long, my last breath a step away from your wrong

I'll have to try till I can't anymore I know

For you I'd go miles without letting anyone know

Silently and slowly, my waves will reach your shore

I'll become the most beautiful sunset you've ever known.
