Dear love
You make me angry, you make me sad
You pull me down like a wave on the sea
You're the one thing I can't seem to loose
When everything else was taken
I can't get enough of the thing I hate the most
Sometimes the only thing that ever matters to me is the the shades of blue in your eyes
You're like art, you make me feel something inside
I get self-conscious when I think of you thinking of me
You make me want to dance when there's no music around
You make me feel then more then the sum of my parts
But when I'm with you everything stops
I am whole when I'm with you
I am complete
