I care for you
In a way that seeks no return
As if it were etched deep into my bone
You will always have a home.
I’ll hold you like you haven’t been held
Gently as you sleep.
I’d like to tell you how my feelings are unparalleled,
But despite my writings, I’d rather things like that be felt
Because I’ve heard so many words in the past
To find that nothing has lasted
So I won’t take this for granted
Like I once did in the past.
