how i long

how i long to be loved
to be looked upon for that which i am
with eyes of admiration
not just admiration

but the eyes that see through you
the eyes that love you
the eyes that you can talk to
the eyes that control you in ways you can't describe

to have someone press against you
trusting you
warming so much more than your arms
and in the way you lift them

they lift your heart so high
that it feels like it could brake in joy
so high you forget to be scared
of how far you can fall

when you are intoxicated
not by the flesh
but by the bond between souls
knowing you have the one thing that means the most you

the responsibility that pushes you farther
that fills that need to be motivated
that makes you try harder
to be a better man for her

that strange since of inner piece
that love that brings you to something
great and true
that love that makes you have a glimpse

of what god wanted
when he made us in two
how he wanted us to act as one
no matter how far apart we are

and no matter what separates us
the bond never ends
the love that knows
no boundaries

and no boundaries exist
no things unspoken
no promises broken
no lies spoken

that connection that even in anger
even when there is hate boiling
theres still that companionship
that you don't belong apart

what long for most
is the warmth
at the end of the worst days
you can rest

she can sleep in strong arms
and whisper i love you
and i feel safe and want nothing more
than you holding me
