You know who you are,
            
            Although I haven’t known you long
             I feel it’s been an eternity
             Since you’ve waltzed into my life
             Destroying all shapes of conformity

             You turned my world on its ear
             And truly opened my eyes
             For the first time in my life
             I didn’t question my hope on the rise

             You had me drop my guard
             That I’d held up for so long
             And for that I thank you
             You helped me become strong

             You showed me so many wonders
             Even now it’s hard to forget
             The way you took my hand
             And gave your promise to protect

              It hurts me to admit
             That now you’ve come and gone
             But the lessons that you taught me
             Brought my life a new dawn

             So with these words I paint you
             So you might live forever
             And now I’m signing off
             Truly yours, now and forever

                                         *Yours, now and forever

I wish words could express
The way my heart is aching
But this pain is like no other
My soul is slowly breaking

You snuck your way into my life
And left your heavy mark
How can I move on past
With this gaping wound, so dark?

You may as well have inked my skin
For there’s no chance I’ll forget
The emotions you’ve awakened inside
That now **** me with regret

What do I do....
                   .... when my heart stops loving you?
Tiffany Apr 2014
When you call me baby
I feel my pressure rise
My blood starts to boil
And I come alive inside

Tell me that you love me
But do you really mean it
I know you love my body
But do you love my spirit?

The way we move together
It’s like we’re meant to be
We fit together like a puzzle
I’m a lock and you’re the key

Let me hear you say it
I’m the only one for you
Know my heart can’t take it
If it isn’t true

Those long summer nights
With skin against skin
Is what plays out in my dreams
Those nights you made my world spin

But all of that means nothing
If you think I’m just a phase
Because I love you: mind, body, and soul
And will want you for the rest of my days

This is where it starts
The beginning of the end
Life is crashing down
We were too late to mend

It took only but a moment
To listen to a strangers word
But we were too distracted
And the needy went unheard

Man must help his fellow man
Or all hope is lost
This came to be our downfall
Our selfishness has a cost

There is no higher price to pay
Than for the sin of our apathy
“This isn’t my responsibility”
That was our greatest fallacy

This is where it starts
The beginning of the end
Life is crashing down
And we're too late to mend

Hell hath no fury
Like that of a woman scorned
And soon, love, you’ll realize
The beast you have transformed

I’m setting off on my own
And wondered what you were thinking
But then again, you never cared
Just go back to your drinking

I’ll find my way, without you
And it’ll be easy you see
For I’ve been making it on my own
As long as my memory can remind me

Don’t trouble yourself, I know my way to the door
Go ahead and take another pull
You’ll need the ***** to keep you straight
When you realize your life isn’t worth bull
