“Dear You.”

Dear You.
Year: 1998

[1]
My hopes and dreams lie scattered
Only my tears remain.
My fragile heart is shattered,
But you hold my pain.
I feel your love around me
My tears are in your eyes
You hold the pieces of my heart
And I have to watch you die.

[2]
Time slips quickly by
Daytime turns to night
but the love I have for will never fade
because I'll always fight.

Friend or lover
Cannot tell one from the other
I want to spend forever
Loving you

[3]
When I think of you it is my heart that remembers- and it remembers best.

[4]
I'm sorry that the only heart I have to give you is broken
Struggling.
I think of how much I love you.
Do you know how much I want to be all I can for you?
Can you see how hard my heart fights against the sins that plague me?
I would give myself to you if I could remember that I love you.

[5]
Will you love me?
Will someone love me?
Not with your imperfect infatuation
But unconditionally

I'm tough, but I cry.
I can take it, but I hurt.
I need you.
Can you see past what I show you?
Maybe you just don't want to.
That's okay. I can take it.

An image of non-reality
Painting the standards of do's and don't's
On a tapestry of believability
"Lovely" is not what pictures say
And not what experts say to do
If beauty is what I behold, loveliness is you.
A beauty in you is what I see.
Come see what I've found.
