Mellow Tenderness

I have such sentimental devotion
My eyes are an outlandish ocean 
Wish I had positivity's pure potion
Pleasure and pain got me feeling my sad notion
Of what I've become - the chosen 

I don't know what to do, what to do 
Am I a leader or a follower?
My mellow tenderness towards you
Made me see a mighty blur

I fell in love too easily 
I've gone away, my baby 
Free me, you grew on me
I want to be set free possibly
We had an optimistic opportunity 
And we missed it tremendously 
Give me glorious, gracious glee
Love me like you've done, honey
I can't be with you honestly 

My mellow tenderness got the best of me
Bringing me back to regret and I'm guilty
I want to repent of my undying sins
I remember snacking on Wheat Thins

Give me a reason
Give me a season
Give me a reason
Give me a season
To hold onto, for I'm hopeless
I'm here, weeping in utter distress

I see white and black now
Somehow, I wish I could take a bow
Tried to kill the pain inside
Tried to find a place to hide
I'm dying alive in your arms tonight
You blew it and I blew it too alright

My mellow tenderness
Was taken advantaged of
Don't take me lightly, Miss
Mr. LuvCuddlez gotta love

I'm in a pattern towards being in an urn 
Happiness is what you deserve and should earn
My flames of fantastic feelings burn
Let my oceans of outlandishness churn

Believe in me
Reflect on me with mere glee
Believe in me,
My darling love of sheer ecstasy 

Spooky nightmares and dazzling dreams
Tore me somewhat down by the seams
My mellow kindness, nonetheless,
Is amazing as I'm making progress

It's all water, rocks and debris
Under the bridge of Set-me-Free
Compassion and creativity 
Mix as one unconditionally 
Mellow tenderness is a gift...
No longer a horrid curse alift
You were so dependent on me
Until you put me down angrily

I spread my broken wings and fell on my face...lost without a trace
I tried to keep pace and kiss your lovely lips - accept my embrace 
But I couldn't, so I'm a disgrace
I need God's glimmering grace

But, I accept you
With mellow tenderness and hopeful happiness 
I felt oh so blue
Until you brought me back to life in eustress 

Affection, I must confess,
Is the love of my life more or less
Still, I love you oh so true
You're cruel when you make me blue

Desert our radiant fakeness in excess 
Fair enough, you have given me distress
I am mesmerized in my beautiful mess
I am the wise one - intellect is plentuous
Life, in general, is gracious and precious 
Anguish hit me like an arrow precariously 
Brew me unblasphemed benevolence maybe
Free me please... do it oh so ecstatically and irreplacably 

Iridescent sunsets thrill my elegant eyesight 
Mellow tenderness cuddles me up tonight
You left my heart afright
But, hey, that's all alright
Love me up with all my might
Everything is black and white 
I don't know wrong from right
Sometimes...at times...whatadelight

I desire flightful freedom 
From this prison kingdom
Touch me tenderly 
Tell me you love me

My Heart is on fire
Torn apart from the start 
Admire my empire
Of audacious, heart art

I won't put out a single fight
I want to do what is right 
Fulfill me with your might 
Peace and love is here, alright?

My mellow tenderness 
Is my delight, my mistress
It's giving me mental progress
And giving me miraculous success
I am playing some emotional chess

I need to rest my eyes now
I need to lift up my buried brow 
Somehow, I will roam very vicariously
Vivacious vibes are vibrant fortunately 
I am mindblown in this strange town
Eccentricity never hurt anyone anyhow
I want to wear the upside down frown
I wipe the sweat from my above brow

I'm below,
Soon to be above
Yes, I know...
I must be brave, love

Courage and motivating meekness 
Makes me feel humility and happiness 
You have given me so much gladness 
Mellow tenderness will see to it more or less...
