i.

you are-
you are my world.
no matter
the amount of scars
you give me,
i always come running back
(your arms wide open).
because i be(lie)ve
that you can change.

ii.

when we met i remember
seeing the sunset in your eyes
and i remember immediately
giving myself away
(to you).

iii.

your hands
run along my spine
and i hear you murmur,
"you're mine;
only mine."
and I know it's true;
because i've known you,
loved you,
i'll never be able to love another.
i gave you my heart and soul
(why haven't you given me yours?)

iv.

i feel my heart
getting heavy as
we're tangled under
sheets. you’re the sex and
the music. as your stone-cold
heart beats those
hollow beats, i carefully
listen.
and it's scenes like
this that will be the death of us.

v.
i should know better,
i should walk (run) away from you
and the hurt and the lies and
the damn inconsistencies
but
i guess i'm a sucker for pain
so keep dishing it,
darling;
i love it when you
tear me apart.

vi.

i wonder if i'll
ever get tired of this
bitter-sweet symphony.
