Turning Page..........

I've waited a hundred years,

but i'd wait a million more for you.

Nothing prepared me for

what the privilege of being yours would do.

If I had only felt the warmth of your touch,

If I had only seen how you smile when you blush.

Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough.

I would have known what I was living for all along.

What I've been living for.

Your love is my turning page,

where only the sweetest words remain. 

Every kiss is a cursive line,

every touch is a redefining phrase.

I surrender who i've been for who you are, 

for nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.

If I had only felt how it feels to be yours,

well, I would have known what i've been living for all along. 

What i've been living for.

Though we're tethered to the story we must tell,

when I saw you, well, I knew we'd tell it well.

With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas,

like a feather bringing Kingdoms to their knees.
