Only Love

eyes that hold the secrets of the universe
hands that hold me close
you kiss the scars that decorate me
with you, it's as if time slows

I give myself to you
our heartbeats synchronize 
together, we thrive on the love we share 
with you, I feel alive

you are my only love
the light I need to carry on 
so lay with me at nightfall
and stay with me until dawn

my heart is yours to keep
and my soul is tied to yours 
the fire I have that burns for you 
shall burn forever more <3
