You asked me yesterday
if I believed in hope
in others words for you and I
I couldn’t reply
I told you I needed space to think
So here lies the truth
This what I think
I wasn’t looking for serious
I wasn’t looking for commitment
I had a heart full of brokenness
A soul full of guilt
But you were the Celt gypsy who arrived
to steal my heart and
claim my soul to dance with it
in the rain
Without you I do not live
I merely exist
Without you I do not feel the
breath of air as it enters my lungs
You are every thought that enters
my mind
You are the skin on my bones
For you are integral to my being
You will always be part of me
That’s why I cannot ever stop
being in love with you
So yes I do believe in hope.
