Surrender of Devotion

I soar from myself, wrapped up in you
And vying for the freedom to be heard.
Hysteria and something unknown,
I want to laugh, I need to weep.

Screaming to be heard, I barely reach your ears.
Follow the sound of my projected voice and
Feed upon the love I give to you.
I'll hold you in my heart, my soul, and never force you away.

Devotion ignored for too long, and I fall to catch my breath.
In your eyes I see the sun, and I know
You burn away my fear,
Nourish my strength and make me invincible.

Like from the sun, I shied away from your touch for so long.
Now, I surrender my heart, my body, my love to you
To warm with your energy of light, of dark, of everything.
Take me and know my best once more.
