I never thought love could be this painful, till I tasted my own skin

I never thought a lover could lie, till I cant feel him inside me

I tried to change, change for the better

For a better me; less curious, less sad, less caring, more satisfied

I never thought a man like him could change me,

A man who doesnt even know what love is

I remember I was a wild horse running in the wilderness,

I was a burning house, an endless highway to nowhere, a 4 am poet, a book of unread pages, an empty mouth till you filled me with roses and letters.

I never thought I could change, I was a drowning bottle in an unknown island when you came, I was an empty bookshelf, an unripe apple, a dying tree that no one cares till you watered my sins with love and promises and wash them away to the river of hope

I never believed in love, or wedding rings, or tears, or I love yous, or sleep with me

I never believed in one man, or stars, or dreams, or kisses, or goodbyes

I never believed in us, or holding hands, or vows, or distance, or relationships

But I believed in you, I believe in heaven, I believe in grief, I believe in GOD, in sacrifice, in miracles, in faith, in destiny, in time, in death, I believe my man could love a man.
