I Am Yours

Since loving you, there’s no way back 
My nerves of steel begin to crack 
When you lean in for a tender kiss 
We’re laid in bed, this solitary bliss 
Rough edges of the words you spoke 
Pierce me with every word you wrote 
Let your lips clean up this blood 
Before the wall lets in this flood 
Oh, the water is wading in 
My train of thought wearing thin
Let me sink into this dark sleep 
Open the gates and let them reap 
Forgive me of this minds stimulation 
Your touch sets fire to my imagination 
Carry on and let our minds entwine 
For I am yours, and you are mine
