T'Aimer

Loving you is day and night dreaming of your face
It’s my skin that’s dying, thirsty for your touch
It’s the lost spring playing with my age
Filled with hopeful days and restless nights

Loving you is that torrent rushing through my veins
That flows into my heart to invade my days
It’s the jailer’s hand that without chains
Holds me captive without needing rescue

It’s the echo of your name singing in my ear
It’s everything I invent in dreams every time
It’s the buzzing of a thousand wonders
Of all that you are and all that you’re not

Loving you also means more intimate things
It’s my body and your body under the sky of your bed
And those whispered words, that happiness elevates
Making me the all-powerful god of your nights

Loving you is my hands and my body begging you
It’s your intoxicating scent that floats around me
Loving you is all of this and even more
It’s the desire to have you endlessly in my arms

Loving you is in my flesh that burns and shapes
Deep within me like a square of blue
From which escape songs that happiness sings
In heavenly harmonies with sweet and pure tones

Loving you is those doubts that unsettle me
That fear you’ll leave without leaving behind
Just a few memories like dead leaves
In my devastated joys and my life on the cross

Loving you is the reason I live my life
And if you left me with no hope of return
I’d make loving you my last madness
Dying at your feet in the name of our love
