Are we like two stars in a constellation
Seeming so close
And making so much sense
Yet in reality
We are separated by lightyears
And shall never meet?
Except, perhaps
In that sacred space
Between dreams and reality
Called hope.

You are my drug of choice
I know you’re no good for me
And though I swear my lips
Will never touch you again
Here we are, here we are.

I found a night’s sky full of stars
In your cinematic eyes
And heard a symphony
In your laughter.

You see flaws in every face
If you look long enough.

That’s why I’m so afraid
Of the word ‘forever’.

Forever is long enough
For sunrises to become stale
For fire to become tame
For a favorite song
To become like nails
On a chalkboard;

Forever is long enough
For passion to waste away
Like grapes into raisins
Under the beating sun
Of countless days.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you
I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish you were mine
The truth is, you stole my heart from afar
The truth is, you still have it. 

Love starts as a feeling,
But to continue is a choice;
And I find myself choosing you
More and more every day.
