a million strides

i would make a million strides

to see that look in your eyes

You pierce through me

and see my soul 

just to leave me wanting more 

if i could wake up next to your gaze

i would give up 

all my lonely 

selfish ways

to be with you 

and see you more

i wonder what are

were waiting for

i would love you for the next

million days 

as i love your soul

even more than your face
