I would never try to talk you into my arms,
You might feel trapped, if that was not where you wanted to be,
But if I found you there I would hold you close and tender, long, feeling your every breath,
I don't want to change your life, but if your life changed for the better,
because of me, a tear in my eye, to show the joy that you bring,
I would never steal your kiss,
But if my lips met yours I would be drunk with the wine of your love, to drink slowly, and deeply,
Savor, every drop, every moment,
And if life brought us together,
I would not hold you so tightly that you felt like a prisoner,
I would show you the freedom that true love brings,
I would give you the courage to reach for the stars,
Careful to keep your feet on the ground,
Though you reach for Heaven,
I would hope that you find me at the end of your grasp
