r o m a n ii

i am crawling to you
i am dying to meet my best friend
i do believe in my other half
though i've sworn that one and one make two
i'm waiting for you to save me
i'm waiting to save myself in finding this we,
this thing they always talk of
this romeo and juliet dagger love
that tumbles
into the tomb
i have run myself ragged trying to live,
what if i die,
what if i sigh with a cupid arrow
and furrow into the ground
and having found love
rise up a fountain?
love is a cloud, love is mountain
love is an oasis, a myth
a smith formed it
and i can't find it in all my waking
so lead me, lady in my dreaming
