believe me when i say i want to love.

i want sweetness like candy and home to be a warm embrace

i want passion, not in arguments or tension, but in a lovers embrace

i want understanding and unconditional

i want to know what it's like to have someone to call your own - someone just as proud to wear your name on their chest.

so believe me when i say i want to love.

i want it all - the world to be something as tangible as gentle caresses in between tangled sheets.

but i am exhausted.

i am exhausted of seeing the constellations in your eyes

- twinkling as bright as ever.

each star a reason to love you more.

each one as enticing as the next,

urging me to venture further until i find that i am lost in the essence of you.

i only grow more exhausted because i know you can't find a single star in mine.
