When you were near you were always so far, maybe it was my mind playing games
Because even though I hadn't lived with you for even a year, I felt like we knew each other for atleast a thousand.
Love is complicated, happens unexpectedly, when you least expect it to,
You had loved me, but I had been too frightened to notice
You and me, I thought was a tale fitting for the archives.

We had nothing in common, not one iota,
You were introverted, I was the class clown
You were the butterfly, I was the fly
If I said I didn't think about us being together, it would be a big fat lie.

Perhaps you don't know, I live inside a cobweb of darkness, woven by the succubus of lust,
Although I know you'll shove it away, saying 'Sometimes life engulfs us inside a cocoon of darkness to bring out the butterfly of light and life.'
Well darling for that to happen, I need you to be by my side, I need you to become my partner, my wife.

And if you're in love with someone else, don't worry, my heart is already amorphous
I'll still be by your side protecting you from whatever is virous, shielding you from the grotesque realities of existence.
