While you sleep

By RibbonHeart

You are my most beautiful, you are my everything.
The one to keep me warm when all around me turns to ice.
It is you that finds me when I am alone and wishing not to be seen.
It is you that helps me fix the things that I have broken.

Unknowingly, you are all I have ever desired,
wrapped around everything I never wanted.
Twisting my thoughts to your will until I can't remember who I was back then.
Tying those heartstrings so tight that I can't even feel them anymore.

You are the one to bring a smile to my lips,
To wade beside me through the torment of life.
Together is not a word that meant much to me before you.
Forever is not a word that I would have ever used.

Patience is your virtue and grateful is mine,
A cliche is used for souls being entwined.
You know my worst and I see your best,
My beautiful, intellectual, unforgettable friend.
