I’ve waited a hundred years.
but I’d wait a million more for you.
nothing prepared me for
what the privilege of being yours would do.
if i had only felt the warmth within your touch,
if i had only seen how you smile when you blush,
or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough,
I would have known what I was living for all along.
what I've been living for.
your love is my turning page,
where only the sweetest words remain.
every kiss is a cursive line,
every touch is a redefining phrase.
I surrender who I’ve been for who you are,
for nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours, well,
I would have known what I've been living for all along.
what I’ve been living for.
Though we're tethered to the story we must tell,
when I saw you, well, I knew we'd tell it well.
with a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas.
like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees.
