These predicaments we face really break the heart
This problem has gone on longer than we both can bear
After so long a love
The waters run dry
Our emotions are mere actions predetermined by stereotypes
How did we get here?
Feeling like Deborah Cox in the brain
This thing we’ve become I truly detest
Sometimes I feel like running away
Far away or even back in time
When the rivers flowed with vigor and strength
Love’s presence has eroded like mountains over time
The fire is extinguished
Intimacy is like a household chore
Life has caught hold of our status and twisted it into a withered old soul
The words “ I Love You” are hollow and bare
No emotion flows from the words spoken from our mouths
But this love must reignite
We’re destined to be great
We sacrifice too much
We savor too little
I love you for eternity
I can’t live without you
Please help me find passion
That first love type passion
That passionate love making
Help me ignite that fire
That had us dripping from head to toe with sweat from a pleasurable night
Light the fire and let it burn for eternity
I love you can’t you see that?
Let’s work this out
Let’s be one again
Let me love you better
Don’t let the water run dry
