I love you with all my worth,

But when you were hurt it was like I was lost on this huge earth

I shouldn’t have let them near shouldn’t have let them watch your face become ruled by fear

It should have just been us, in a world our own. One not ruled by fear or lust

Where cold doesn’t exist and heat can only be found when you come with me

There shouldn’t have been screams of rage intermixed with ones of fear

Only us laying there

I only wanted you

I only wanted us

I only wanted you safe

I only wanted things my way

I hadn’t realized that day that it was me you were running from

I was your fear I was your reason

The reason you kept on living leaving me in the darkness

Never shedding light on me unless I was to blame

It was only my need to keep you safe

My need to want us

My need to have it my way
