Have You Known?

You still can hear me breathing,
But have you ever thought
That I'm holding my breath just for you?

You still can see my heart bleeding,
But have you ever known
That it's pierced by the sword, meant for you?

Don't turn away, having asked me
If I love life more than you.
Sure I'll say that I do.
Have you known
You and my life are the same?
You're my life and the one who has saved it,
You're the strength,
Flowing to my heart through my veins.

If only I were a gentle wind
To touch your face,
To dry your tears,
To chase your sorrows away,
To let you feel me,
Calming you down...
And you'd know
I'll come back now and then...

Have you ever known
I'll be everything for you?

Conflicts in life and love, in a very nice write.
