Intertwined

You make me laugh

You make me cry

You make me crumble at your heel

You hold me close

You talk so sweet

You make me scared that this is real

You want me here

You'll walk me home

We'll talk for hours on the phone

You see my scars

My side eyed grin

And suddenly I'm less alone

And we were strangers

I guess not anymore

The world looks so much sweeter

So much kinder

Than it ever did before

This hall is full

Of all my ghosts

With woes that no one understands

You saw this soul

Without a clue

And still you chose to take her hand

You kiss the spots

Across my face

You love the things

He never liked

I've never been

Too fond of change

Until you walked into my life

And we were strangers

But that was centuries ago

What would I be like

If our lives weren't intertwined?

I guess we'll never know

You make me proud

When I feel small

Oh you, my love, my everything

You've broken down

My battered walls

And turned my winter into spring

My everything
