HERE

So I was looking for you,
was waiting for you
Here. Just here.
People like me find options easy,
But people like me don’t want easy.
I found you, want you.
So I’m here, just here.

Over and over
I mean it when I say I’m here;
Over and over
You never have to do anything alone;
Over and over
You always have someone to talk to;
Over and over
You never worry alone, rejoice alone;
Over and over
I support you with all of my heart;
Over and over
I stay with you again and again;
Over and over
You disbelieve I could be real;
But I still remain here.

People love to see us together
We form relationships by staying together
We make love affairs
when you look straight into my eyes, my soul
we define amorous synonyms.
I’d say you are in love with me,
And I, you; so I’m right here.

We fight, we make up
We laugh, we cry
We run, we hide
We love, we dance
We mourn and we party.
You are the perfect match for me;
So I’m here.

I’m the kinda girl
Your friends call ‘a keeper’;
I’ve sworn-as much as my age would allow-
My allegiance to you
But somehow,
I still come off as a tease to you
Albeit, I have still remained here.
Well, not for long.

If over and over I’ve been here
And I cherish you with all my heart;
If we do everything together
And we make ‘love’ pale beside us;
If we fuel the love of other people
And you are too awestruck to believe I’m real
-the only thing left for our forever-
Then I’m gone.
