Suffer for the beauty of the experience

and moving beyond it.

Love can love pain, but

pain does not know how to love.

I thought I had to go through the same old rough neighborhood to get to where I wanted to be, for which I never was allowed to stay for long.

I didn't know then that there is a better way to a paradise I never could've imagined.

He had another idea for me, to have a love like I've never had before.

He wants me to stop using my past as a point of reference.

This was something true and beyond what I've ever known.

It made the wait worthwhile.

If you think this is anything less then a selfish mode of expression, you're right.

If you think this anything more then a sincere need to share something deep and personal, you're right again.

The pain drips, slowly, steadly, persistently.

Who will stop it?

You will, cause you know better, cause you can,

Because you are it.

Surrender, not to lose -

Surrender to win back your freedom,

and the love you crave.

Secrets live in darkness.

Love cannot thrive in the dark.

Breathe in,
He touches me.

Breathe out,
He moves through me.

Breathe in,
He touches me.

Breathe out,
He completes me.

Breathe in,
He touches me.

Breathe out,
He loves me.

The single pebble,
The rock's diamond glint,
The bird's shadow -

they tell me it's all true.

Inside the outside

I made a mistake, a mistake with meaning.

Contained within, I looked only just beyond, there was the answer.
