love cohesion
(Valentine comp)
i have spoken words i have not heard myself say
and had arms around me that were not felt
i have been an obstruction without being in the way
and i've lost with the winning card dealt
i have swum across oceans with no water in sight
and drowned in the vast desert sky
i have argued the point until wrong became right
and made love in the face of a lie
i have blacked out drunk without touching a drink
and set fire to a forrest with no trees
i have convinced myself to ignore what I think
and murdered from down on my knees
i have slept in my thoughts laid awake in my sleep
and lived nightmares with eyes open wide
so i know that the things i see with my eyes
can be often so different inside
with all of the things that aren't what they seem
and the chance that what i see isn't true
i can rest in the faith of a heaven sent love
immersed in such sweet sweet loving
my immersion in you
