Success


I would like to make it worth it,
to succeed
and still to lose my heart
to take back
what was mine
again
and again
As selfish as I can be, I'll be.
I'll steal
what I can not win
your kiss
your soul
the breath that slips between your lips.
and what I can not steal

I'll own

invading your each and every dream
so that you can not turn around
but to see my arms
open
wide
for you
drawing you in.
This is truth
Again I'll show you.
Doubt me more
so I can win you again.
Test my strength
so I can prove me strong,
throw me out
so that I may come in and be warmed
Absorb me into

your very pores.

with every word
every thought
I .
am .
longing.
