with love, for you

[allstarme717]

simple words are all i have for you
because complexity just will not do
i've spoken circles, round and round before
and that's a thing i wish to do no more
so i will strip all metaphors away
leave connotations for another day
stride in words, not whisper in allusion
so as to surely stir no more confusion

i want to love you, little precious lamb
the one i wish to give to all i am
you'll cut me to the bone if you are cold
oh please, my darling, trust this will unfold
into the deepest passion we have known
into the perfect pairing, strong as stone
let me feel the way your heart does beat
i'm patient, lover, trust that i won't leave
