Work Text:
I long for the moment
I can hold you in my arms
Where your logic falters
And bends in my favor
For I see no reason
That you would want me
With all my flaws and all
The ghosts within my past.
How could you love me?
Would your discipline
Prove it useless
Likes paper boats upon the sea
Yet here you stand before me
With eyes that pierce my doubt
Your steady gaze unwavering
As storms of fear roll out
Each tender word you whisper
Builds bridges through my walls
And though I try to push away
You catch me when I fall
The demons that I carry
Begin to lose their grip
As your love flows around me
Like stars that slowly drift
Perhaps I'll learn to trust this
The gift you freely give
And let my heart believe that
In your love, I can live
Your strength becomes my anchor
When shadows crowd my mind
Your patience never wavers
As piece by piece, you find
The beauty that I buried
Beneath years of regret
Until at last I see myself
Through eyes that won't forget
