Know

When you look at me I know all the words 
Forbidden to us
The ones that echo in the back of my mouth

That could 
So easily 
Fall from my lips 
Are the same words 

That hide

In your smile for me

The one that meets your eyes
A smile so bright 
It could bathe the whole world with warmth

You're presence fills me
With a peace as vast as a tranquil sea
A passion as fierce as a roaring tide
Some how with you I am created anew
All preconceptions thrown to the wind
The rocks I thought constants 
Turn to sand
The fears I thought primal
Discovered learnt
You set me free from myself 
And I fall in step beside you

So when our gaze catches 
And our lips embrace

Know this isn't it

This isn't everything

This is only our beginning

Know that I am here on happy days like this
But know there is no shadow so dark
That I would not find you
For when the world is cruel
I will be stood shoulder to shoulder
Fighting to win back your smile
When the night's come filled with tears
I will sit down on the floor beside you 
Hold you till the dawn
When life's rhythm sends you away
I will wait
Ready to dance in your arms upon your return
When there is silence
it is just the space for you to notice
Your perfect reflection in my eyes
For you are unlike any other
I would not cage you 
Never change you
I would not paint you a different shade
I wish only to be the accent that makes your colours pop
The backing track to your beautiful song

So when your lips brush mine

Taste the words on the tip of my tongue

And 

Know

I love you
