A Dedication
You are my love
My sweet protector
My guardian in the night
The one who persevered to convince me
Who taught me how to fight
You are power
You are struggle
You are weakness
You are light
You are everything inside
That makes me come alive
You are my love
My sweet confessor
My redemption personified
The one who fought so hard to love me
Who taught me how to lie
You are tantric
You are passion
You are magic
You are fear
You are the reason for my happiness
The salt within my tears
When you hold me, you command me
When you speak, I hear no words
My heart feels the words you cannot say
Reads the emotions undisturbed
When you touch me, you make me tremble
When you laugh, you make me smile
The disparity of confusion
Because you can only stay awhile
Why are you here? What do you want?
Can I give that to you now?
I loved you well once
And I have not forgotten how
But you are shadow
You are darkness
You are control
And you are pain
You are all the elements of my past
I will not relive again
You are sunshine
You are brightness
You are surrender
Needed rest
You are the dream held for the future
The past I soon forget
You are my love
My sweet protector
My guardian in the night
You are my love
My sweet confessor
You are redemption personified
You are my death
You are my future
You are my sleepless nights
You are my life
You are happiness and anger
You are humble, you are pride
The reason for my laughter
And the reason I still cry
You are everything and nothing to me
All wrapped into one
You bring to me the pouring rain
But you also bring the sun
There was sunshine, then it rained
Then there was a storm
Through the downpour, the lightning
I was a lover scorned
The electricity, the power, the thunder
The memories that linger in this room
The rain stopped, the clouds parted
Have you come back too soon?
There is a part of me you hold
No one else will ever know
I offer it to you now
A sacred promise, my private vow
I will love you, will protect you
Will be your darkness and your light
I am the guardian of your secrets
I am your passion burning bright
You can love me, you can have me
You can try to be my friend
Reclaim me, you can save me
Be my lover, be my man
Or you leave me, you can hurt me
You can use me once til the end
Lie to me, convince me
Break my heart again
You are my love
My sweet protector
My guardian in the night
You are my love
My sweet confessor
You are redemption personified
I am for you, my muse
