I

I've been told that love is just an emotion,
it's one hell of an emotion.
They say i don't know what love really is,
but if i've never truly been in love,
this is the closest i've ever been.
They may say i just want you for your body,
i'd rather just hug you,
hold you close.
I've had many dreams of you,
but none are of sex,
just passion.
Just looking at you, into your eyes, mystifies me,
giving me a rush of emotions.
Lust, pain, peace, grief, friendship.
I see my dreams in your eyes,
my god, your eyes...
Lust, craziness, sadness, happiness, foolishness.
I'm a fool to think i deserve you,
to think i could have you,
to have your heart in return.
my god, your eyes...
If i've never truly been in love,
this is the closest i've ever been.
To spend an evening's sunset w/ you,
holding you close to me,
gazing into your eyes.
To share a single passionate kiss,
this my love,
this would be ecstacy.

You worry that you're not liked,
not loved, not wanted.
You're scared of your own feelings,
your own confusing feelings.
You wonder whether or not you should hate.
Because of this, you may be broken.
Look inside, find your peace, your joy,
and when you're there,
you're not scared,
why should you care?
It's your dream,
not theirs.
I wish i could be there,
to travel with you,
make it my dream too.
YOU ARE my dream,
my passion, my pleasure.
You mystify me,
and give me a rush of emotions.
Lust, pain, peace, grief, friendship.
YOU ARE my dream.
Lust, frustration, need, care, sadness.
I try to find my happiness,
and when i've found you,
you're taken away from me.
I will not give up,
i will find you again,
only then will i be at peace.
I'll be happy again.
I swear this i will have.
This is the closest to love i've ever been,
if this isn't truly love.
Our dream is to be happy.
If we're loved, we're not lonely.
You're always on my mind,
in my dreams and we're happy together,
away from the hate, pain, and sorrow.
We sit up high together, rising above it all.
Watching the clouds and the moon,
and stars as they shine on us.
We gaze into each others' eyes,
and share a long passionate kiss,
forgetting our lives,
and being alone together.
This my love,
this would be ecstacy.

I sit in my room,
alone...
listening to music,
the words comforting,
but i'm alone.
You're not here.
sadness...
I close my eyes,
drift into fantasy,
into my dreams,
where i'm not alone,
you're there with me,
in my arms,
my heart,
my feelings,
a tear falls.
I'm alone.
sadness...
all alone...

a tear falls
.
i miss you
.
i want you
.
you hold an empty peice of me
.
i need you
.
where, in me, you once were, lonliness fills the void
.
a tear falls

The fire in your eyes
burns me.
bright spheres,
intoxicating,
grabs me,
held in a trance.
Hunger for your taste,
long for your touch,
caress of your embrace.
The flame in you
hurts me.
intense pain,
a heart bleeding,
filled with crimson pain.
A wish to give happiness,
fullfill fantasy,
give you pleasure,
to be
drunk off your juices.
