The Restart

The start

I loved you in less than a week and although there are plenty of days that I wished that I did not
My love for you continues to flourish non- stop
Like a cactus without much water on our love seeds
Like the sharpness in my chest that fractured my heart and causes my love to bleed
Just promise you'll stay this time, promise you won't leave T
You are oxygen to me
Before you, I was waiting to exhale
Without your love, life is jail
As long as I have you, I'll be stronger
As long as I have you, I wanna live longer
Falling in love with you was just the start 
Let's build with everything we have, starting with our heart
