I do it because I love you

the breaths I would give

the heart beats I would bleed

for every word I hear you say,

are the words I desire.

as you build your castle around me

I tend to break.

the floods you hold are the floods

that seep through the seems.

My beating drum

my fearful screams in the night

are the feelings I drown out,

till One day I fall to my Knees

and BEG

I beg for forgiveness,

I beg for your heart

I beg for the love

you share apon your heart

my beating heart is your for the taking

but spare the parts

that are missing.

The pain I've once felt

are torn

from it's place

and buried in never land.

My pain I felt

then will never return.

Whisper it into the cold

is the Love I fear from you,

the love you

desire are the words

I run from

I do it because I love you
