happy sappy
i am a sap-lover at heart /
stupidly romantic /
i don't belong here /
i want to walk through the autumn /
and paint my face with leaves /
thinking of nothing but how happy /
how warm it is /
with him next to me /
even though my nose /
numbs in the knifing wind /
and do nothing but walk /
only the winds to disturb us /
and the sound of our footsteps /
a lullaby to my past /
all i remember /
is his arms around my waist /
no pain /
and i only cry /
from happiness /
here where nothing /
nothing can go wrong /
here in his arms /
where i belong /
and the rain falls /
i think of what was /
and what may be /
was it all just a preparation /
for this glorious present? /
i want everything i read in books /
a fireplace to sit by /
worn wooden planks /
under a comfy chair /
and him there /
safety never found now /
he throws matches on the past /
love unbeaten /
love that could last /
i want home to be /
wherever we go /
and feel at one with god /
when you snuggle me up in your arms.
