You

Paint me in your memory
I long to feel your love
Sketch my soul upon your spirit
Tell me that I'm enough 

You, my other half
The best part of me
The blood inside my veins
The very air I breathe

You are who I am
Everything I have become
You are the final product 
Of every good thing I have done

You are who I long to be
So etch my name upon your skin
Then everywhere I get to go
Is every place that you have been

My own mind, endless torment
Every thought exposed and true
It's clear that I am nothing
Unless I am with you.
