I Adore You

Wretchedly in love with you
what an honestly perfect confession
for me to adhere my heart to
for my mind to curve into possession.

It hurts deep in my chest
I turn the music much higher
until it breaks through the metal mesh
letting my soul catch fire.

I can't let myself think too long
my eyelids paint your face
even contemplating it within the song
too much and I am gone in my disgrace.

I know that I do not want to do this
I don't want to fall here, now
but when I see your face my motives go amiss
it truly is so much more than I should allow.

I don't want to hate what you do to me
but my hands always shake, and I can't breathe
more than anything I really want you to see
see everything that I wish we could be.
One last little thing, won't take long
I can't promise once it's said I'll be through
but so long as I'm trying to make myself belong
I might mention that I absolutely adore you.
