If Love Could Succumb All That Is Lost

If love could succumb all that is lost

Sometimes I forget to breathe
My eyes sting because I’m staring too hard to see
I forget to blink
My hands tremble and yet I’m not focused on one thing I just stare
Why am I so nervous for today? Life happens right? Nothing new in my schedule of what to do
And then far in the distance as my mind can go it brings me back to you
You’re just an image in my mind but it calms me down and nothing is in my way of view
My heart’s running in a marathon and just the slightest touch 
Breaks all the thrill
Just stand there in no movement because alone looks can kill
Forget what you know and what you’ve heard from them outside
Some of them have touched and felt all but the deepest of my insides
