Democratic Love?
You're eager to know
curious to find out
quick to search this heart of mine
only to find out how I feel.
Will you smile after your quest or
will I have to wipe away your tears?
Tears, these tears I see are they tears of joy or sadness?
Well let me answer your curiosity and be the hero of your quest despite the unintended
effects.
What I feel is true.
It's beyond a democratic love.
It's for the soul,
from the soul,
by the soul.
It's too long to be texted,
too sublime to be posted on the web,
too expensive to be afforded,
too true to be believed.
You're eager to know
curious to find out
quick to search this heart of mine
only to find out how I feel.
Will you smile after your quest or
will I have to wipe away your tears?
Tears, these tears I see are they tears of joy or sadness?
They must be of joy because
since you held me tight, you've never let go.
