For you

Author: chrisgj001

I gouge out my eye so you can see
Hoping to keep it a guarantee
I sever my arm so you can feel
But what would all of this reveal

If I sacrificed myself for you
When you kept secrets I would not pursue
Would you ever do the same for me?
Would you help my soul to be free?

Torrential sorrow is all that there seems
But deep down I grip to all of my dreams
Of something beautiful that will forever last
With love in our hearts that is so vast

Covering us like a winter’s day
Where nothing but clouds will be there to stay
To forever hold to something sweet
Where you finish me and I make you complete

The missing piece of a puzzle long lost
How much to pay and what would be the cost
Would it be worth it to see such bliss
Or would you rather fall to a loveless abyss

Such a question, yet such a pain
But know now I do this for only your gain
I’ll sever my arm and gouge out my eye
But will you only ever wonder why?
