For You

Surrounded by darkness

Engulfed in self-hatred and pain

Your hand grasps mine

You raise me up once again

Your smile bares a glimmering light

Leading me home, away from wrong

They say home is where the heart is

So with you, I must belong

Like two pieces of a puzzle

Matched together in perfection

Longing emphatically to be able

To show you of my affections

I’ve made my selection

Such a lost cause finally found

And if only I could hear the sound

Of your voice, of your laughter

Living happily ever after

A girl can dream, can’t I, too?

My heart remains beating, purely

For you
