You'Ll Be the Death of Me

My loneliness lies in your smile

My pain sinks deep- 

   with your kiss upon my lips

               and your grip upon my hips.

Never have I loved like this-

        and never have I hurt like this

There are moments where 

      I can't take it anymore-

but I always come back...

        all in all I know-

        You'll be the death of me

    If I don't learn to let go.
