For my true love for you my heart knows,
My real desire is to keep and hold you close.
I long to breathe your love in high doses,
You are like a real pocket full of red roses.

I'll wear you like a locket full of sunshine,
Slowly take you in, sip you like fine wine.
I vow to be there for you, be your lifeline,
Oh baby, in time, everything will be fine.

You are mine; for you truly are a one of a kind,
Honestly, you are the place for my peace of mind.
If only these thick ropes of pain could unwind,
For you know I've already left everything behind.

My deep scars and wounds are my only crime,
But all I really ask of you now is for some time.
The words here are not just meant to rhyme,
So please bear with my efforts in the meantime.

Let me find the right way to clean my slate,
I will make it to you before it's far too late.
I promise that we will meet at lovers gate,
Just please don't let me go, stay, and wait.
