ten thousand oceans-

for you i'd swim across ten thousand oceans if only i knew they would lead me into your arms, drenched in the whole of you, weighed down by your heaviness. after the journey is when i'll know i'm closer to being worthy of you. to feel safe and secure i do not long, but to know your love for me is as mine for you would be the song my heart has longed to hear since that first moment i felt your laughter wash over me.

you take me in by speaking only a few short words in passing. i am undone.

i want to tell you so much, but any words i somehow manage to manufacture account to nothing in comparison to how i ache for you-

tell me you have eyes only for me and a heart that wants to be wanted by mine.
i see you; for what you are, and love you for what i know you can be. i only ask for your transparency; confusion i can handle. just tell me you're willing to try. you mustn't fear the hurdles which are destined to come; it's the proper order of these sort of things. i promise we'll leap over them as they arrive- together.

you have been a constant in my life since the first time you opened your heart; i now carry it in mine. so much that now, i cannot escape you.

love me; tell me you'll try. for i am nothing if i am nothing to you
