I Dream Not To Hold a God

Being with you is overwhelming for You are so much more than I am You fill my thoughts and spill out my heart For you are too much You are so much more than I am Because you are a god I dream not to hold For you are too much For a mortal like me Because you are a god I dream not to hold Because your beauty is too unearthly For a mortal like me And I love you so much more than I should Because your beauty is too unearthly You hold thousands of suns in your hands And I love you more than I should For you may burn me without intention You hold a thousand suns in your hands And I should not get close the moon within your eyes For you may burn me without intention And you can control the oceans and tide And I should not get close to the moon within your eyes Because the moon controls the raging water And you can control the oceans and tide And you may drown me without intention Because the moon controls the raging water And I cannot get to close And you may drown me without intention I love you so much more than I should
