There You Are

Larks and dragons, legends and lore,

And violent intimacy between the waves and the shore.

As monsters in my head whisper me lullabies,

And there you are - bit messy bit shy.

My mind often works in mysterious ways,

Sometimes its stormy and sometimes sunny days.

Angels and demons, which side do I choose?

And there you are, wavy hair and hues.

There I stand, all cold all mean,

A heart so hardened, it's lost its sheen.

Bared of emotions, I'd think I'd care less,

And there you are, turning my heart to a mess.

We sit often afraid, and emotions we shoo,

I wonder what makes my heart crave you.

I'd wish we'd share stories, your heart I'd steal,

And there you are, telling me you don't feel.

So what if you've got secrets to hold,

Let me bury the ghosts of old.

I wanna build a home with you and hold on,

And there you are, dreaming of salons.

Take a leap of faith, I'll catch when you fall,

Let's share hearts before time takes us all.

Share worlds and lives, let's roll the dice,

For you - little bird, I'll always leave the last slice.
