Love Worth Living For

I have something to live for
Someone to care for
Someone who makes me feel alive

My life is back on track
Slowly getting better
Old wounds are being stitched up

One person
One thing
Makes everything better

My past is all but forgotten
Yet you don’t seem to care

The future is clearer
And more options are coming into the light

And the present
…oh the present

The beautiful never lasting days
Just spend in your embrace

The indescribable kisses
That tingle my soul

I never want it to stop
I never want you to go away

And I know… I just know
That, for now, I am free of harm

Because I have you too keep me safe.
