Can you

I woke up
you were there
you were always there
I couldn't feel you
I was cold on the inside.

Alone in the crowded room
at the dinner party
sipping dry white wine.
Yuk,
I would rather have a
coco with bitter sweet chocolate
You watch me from across a room.

I saw you but didn't know
you were here for me.
I knew you were here.

I crave you,
I want to taste your soul
I want to lap the
tears of life
with you and about you.

Will you walk with me
love me as I can love you.
Cry with me
as you enter my deepest fears
as you enter my deepest joys.
Can you ?

Never question
are you the one.
As only the one would
find me in the crowd
Would watch me from afar
Would love me
where ever you are.

Be my love
in secret and in truth.
I will never doubt or fail you

Can you?
