the inevitable tide
your shadow haunts me, making me crazy
i need you so desperately
my body and soul aches for you
your caress tortures me as memories take me away
how can i ever let you go
please don’t fall in love until i get over you
you’ll break my heart even more
you’ve found my lost spirit; it is yours, has always been
your presence courses through my veins
i long to love you like you want me to
the obstacle is nothing we cannot overcome
but only with each other are we able to conquer it
you shiver with expectancy, urgency
i know you need me, why won’t you admit
you lie to yourself, saying i mean nothing
we both know the truth, cleave unto me as i do you
the one thing i can’t live without
is the one thing i lived my whole life for
i have waited for you for so long
and i still wait
eternity may come and go
my soul will not rest
you tease me with mere morsels of love, joy
i beg you to give me your all
i can feel you in me so much
you satisfy my entire being
i yearn to fulfill your desire
why won’t you allow me
i have grown weary and insane
but still i find strength for you
you are all i have ever needed, wanted
i wish i could make you see i belong to you
ask anything of me and i will
your existence lingers; taunts and intertwines mine
never engulfing me, just like the ocean tide
is this the price i must pay for you
