Strength

Driving my way home tonight

I couldn't see the streets

And I couldnt feel my hands

I could barely move my feet

When the street lights shined

all I felt was misplaced

I had waited a whole day

just to touch your face

And as the roads kept winding

and my car began to warm

and my fingertips were moving

like the feeling was reborn

The only thing Id think of

was some years down the road

sitting next to me by a fire place

on a cold winter, I saw your face

Maybe it was the combination

of the high and love songs

but I couldnt change the station

So I just sang along

And the louder I was singing

the faster my heart beat

and my ears began ringing

knowing you're thinking of me

I close my eyes and wonder

how I ever fell in love

with so much hate in my life

what didnt I do wrong

I never thought Id trust it

No, I never thought I'd feel

that something like this, could exist

that Id ever believe it was real

I cant imagine a moment

when I cant hear your voice,

and I cant kiss you lips

Like Id have no other choice

I cant nearly picture

a single day that could go by

without the one person I love

lying by my side

Ive slowly come to realize

all the changes that Ive made

have been motivated by you

for the home I wish to make

I never thought anyone

would put my a*s in gear

without getting in my face

and physically pushing me there

A word you haven't spoken

An idea you haven't passed

I did it on my own

because for you I want the best

And there will never be

a day that you wont be fed

that you wont feel warmth

or a roof over your head

I would lie my life

on the line before your eyes

just to see you live another day

or just pass one more smile

Some days I just wake up

and although you're in your bed

I can still feel you in mine

You remain in my head

My home is where your heart is

and may I be blessed to keep

that perfect little organ

right where mine beats

I swore Id love you always

I swear Ill love you now

and when you wake up in the morning

dare not you wonder how

The comfort and security

the grazing of your hand

makes me the most content

for not a boy, Ive found a man

That man can be fragile

he can hug and kiss and laugh

but hes the strongest one i know

and that strength will always last

It's actually not a loss, it's about my current boyfriend lol but I do see how it could seem that way. But thank you!
