The green light in my eyes...

Whisper to me all the pretty things,
say them in darkness and dreams.
Tell me all the promises,
that you give to the naive.

Hold your head against my heart,
lean in and make your home.
Press your lips against my cheek,
mark me, make me your own.

If you are my undoing,
I'll kneel and humbly fall,
Crumbing beneath your gaze...
losing all resolve.

Inside tremors come and go,
Your eyes shake me to the core.
Then you say the words, 'I love you'
And all I want is more...

and more...

and more...

------

"Now there’s green light in my eyes,
And my lover on my mind.
And I’ll sing from the piano, tear my yellow dress and,
Cry and cry and cry.

‘Cause you’re a hard soul to save,
With an ocean in the way,
But I’ll get around it,
I’ll get around it."

- Florence + The Machine

I alone

I will never ask of you what is not in your heart to give to me. I will never pursue you if your heart does not desire it to be so. I will love you then as you wish me to, across distance and time. Waiting for your words... for your heart to speak in need, and call me to your side. Until then..

I...alone, will love you in silence, and surrender my heart in passionate poise.
