You became a big part of my world
And eventually became the world itself
I existed because of you; I survived within you
I orbited around you
To catch a glimpse of you felt like getting ahold of a star
If you were the prize, I'd risk it all
For you, I'd do it all
For you, nothing is too small
You could be the hardest path to take
But I was the determined traveler
How could I dream of something else when you are the dream itself?
I kept wanting and wanting more off of you
I badly wanted you
I badly sold myself to you
I badly gave you everything that I have until it costed me
I lost myself for you to find yours
I disentangled your way
Only to find out myself strangled by the strings of you
You caught me—every single part of me
