Soulful Request

How may I push you away

In a way that seems most clever

Wasting time with you

Is not worth my endeavor

I've told you once I've told you twice

Nothing will ever sever

The bond between me, myself, and I

Never...Ever

And yet...you came

And I found myself climbing down the ladder

Something strange about you...

Has caused my thoughts to break and shatter

I've stood face to face with you...

But it is YOU I wish to savor

And run my lips across your neck

And absorb your peculiar flavor

The double negative attraction

Made me jump right off the ladder

And when I finally got to know you...

Your teardrops made me sadder

You bore your face into my chest

And felt my heart beat faster

I pushed your hair back for the first time

And threw away my thoughts of disaster

I have one thing to ask you...it is a simple request

I know now this new love won't sever

My love...your soul is strong

May I borrow it...Forever?
