Essence

You were like an untameable flame soaked in gasoline

Beaten and brusied because nobody loved you.

So hurt by the words of others you vowed to remain single

Because no one could love a soul whose heart is cold and alone

You creep through hallways

avoiding mirrors that reflect the beast 

anger stricken you fight through the pain

no loving words to get you through the day

your trust with others resembled a broken mirror

fixed but always cracked

for how do you love with there is no trust

no crush can fill the gapping holes of lust 

a lust for acceptance...no matter how large

it would  inspire you to fly even though you've been grounded for so long

a hurt little bird

unable to fly

don't worry, i won't let you die

Because i love you

you will never hurt again

my love will resonate like a sweet symphony

my instruments flowing in rhymic tune

each note bursting with i love you

please don't cry

i will be your hero

with a big red cape i will swoop in 

and save the day

i will bring you sunshine

Because i love you

there will be no dark

no monsters at night because ill be by your side

Because i love you i vow to never leave

my heart represents a CD

always on repeat

i will scream on mountain tops

so the world will hear

that i am your girl

so no more saddness and tears. 

my actions will represent an army

always on the frontline

protecting you

i will show you

that because i love you

you dont have to hide

you are a work of art

colors of passion will always shine

because i love it will never fade
