Oh, My Beautiful One

And did you ever even expect for it to die like this?
Another doubt in the feelings of what might exist,
between you and I.
While the sun may set and the sun may rise
a thousand times before I see your eyes.
All the while I'll just keep it in mind
that one of these days you'll be rightfully mine.

And if it ever really was supposed to be like that,
where I can look forward and find you looking back.
Pushing us up, we loving it all.
Finding the sense to defy, to face our fall.
Because where would I be without you right beside me?
Another ignorant man trying to fight blindly?
Please understand that this is just how I wish we could feel;
where I'd be your sword and you'd be my shield.
