Love Should Terrify You

Love should terrify you

It's losing every principle to gain those precious moments

It's being under the mercy of each words ,

Ever to be spoken between you two.

It's to feel like you'll never find better happiness

No matter what you'll ever do.

Love should terrify you

It's not dwelling in the hill with the birds chirping

It's to hope for the best reading a book with no definite ending.

It's hanging on to each word, each gesture and look exchanged ,

Cause you know life will be miserable without this special place.

Love should terrify you

You'll lose sanity at his touch ,for him to restore it with another

You'll want to be someone useful than the one you are now, maybe even better

Cause the smile you see will be worth more than anything in life

nothing will ever measure up to what you're feeling inside .

Love should terrify you

It doesn't seek your approval when it grabs hold of your heart

It's a sweet ecstasy with both sided blades able to tear you apart

Yet you're willing to offer your self up to it's edges

Cause it fills your void like the air to your lungs ,like the sunshine to your days.

Love should terrify you

You'll look at yourself in daze of who you've become

You'll be shocked at the person you were before you met him

Would that be able to retrieve the identity you lost on the way?

No. Cause you'll do so much more for him to stay.

Love should terrify you

It fills you with the need to keep him pleased and far from any hurt

What makes him smile will be your joy, whatever burden upon him will be on yourself

Like some spiritual cosmic connection you're bound ,

To yearn for his life to be as peaceful as it can get.

Love should terrify you

It's being unsure of yourself when he's around ,not trusting your actions

The little things make you smile ,the little things become everything.

It's losing control of your life that once was how you wanted it to be

Smiling while you're world is being terrorized by confusion, fallen from the peak of clarity

Love should terrify you

It never knocks a door it rather knock you down

When it creeps to invade your body and soul , it doesn't make a sound.

Unless you're blessed with a kind man to fall in love with,

Hell's fire will replace the blissland you had imagined.
