ok, so i needed to quit lurking, but my non-linear self has not yet completed the first chapter in the fic i'm working up, (but chapters 5 and 8 are done! did i mention i'm non-linear?) so i decided to "pop my kitten board cherry" with a poem i wrote after watching "tough love" all those years ago. i figured "what the hell, might as well share!" here goes nothing.
spoilers: nope. although you may recognize a few lines and situations, theres no real hard set details.
disclaimers: i do not own the characters that are not directly mentioned in this poem but did provide the inspiration. "speak true" is directly quoted from the great and wonderful melissa etheridge.
SPEAK TRUE
When I lie with you beneath the stars
Heaven doesn’t seem so far
When I look into your eyes I fall over again
Each day takes me higher, I pray it never ends
Together we’ve shared laughter and we’ve danced in the rain
We can face down heartache and we can get past pain
Everything in my world is better with you
You have my word I’ll always speak true
When I see your loving face, I know I can make it through any day
When you hold me in your arms, you make the world just fall away
Promise me you’ll never hide your heart
I don’t ever want uncertainty to drive us apart
Speak true, tell me how you feel
I need to know what we have is real
You know you are my girl
Your love is my whole world
Speak true, leave the shadows behind
More then my heart, you have my body, soul, and mind
Speak true, tell me if you are afraid
I don’t want to lose this paradise we’ve made
I never want words of anger to be the last things that we say
What if we can’t take back the pain we cause that way
I never want regret
To be the one thing we can’t forget
Let’s speak true, let no lies come between us
We’ll build our love with honesty and fuel it with our trust
No misspoken word could ever change my mind
Girl my love for you is going to give a test to time
Deep inside I know I was meant to be on this course
So let me tell you true, you have me now I’m yours
But please speak true, tell me what you’re dreaming
I want to help you find the meaning
Share with me your hopes and desires
I want to help you quench those fires
This is so much more then a mere fling
Darling you truly are my everything
The way you captured my heart, the passion you make me feel
Seems so much like magic, but your touch tells me it’s real
Lift me up, lie me down, you can do whatever you please
Because when you whisper in my ear, it brings me to my knees
When I am with you, no pain is too much to bear
Honey here with you there’s no secret I wouldn’t share
Until the very last of my days
Girl you know you are my always
I want love to be the only thing that passes between me and you
I ask of you now, I promise you now, forever let’s always speak true.
(re-reading this i realize... hey, just a little bit sappy much?)
I also like the few random little quotes from Buffy, I can tell you've watched it
