Embers of My Soul

by *Charisma*   Dec 21, 2006


I can never give myself to someone else
Now that you hold the pieces of my heart
Even if you gave them back to me
They'd still be all broken apart

You're the only one who knows how they fit
You're the only puzzle solver there will ever be
And now I'm in the hardest place I've seen
'Cause it's either you, or just a lonely me

So please be careful, and don't let them fall
That's me there you're holding in your hands
And though it may seem so little right now
Those are all my dreams, hopes, and plans

And they all include you so don't break them
Because you'll never look the same without
That's a future you can only really know
If you let me in, and lock other girl's out

I need you more than you'll ever know
You're everything I want and truly desire
So please be careful with those pieces there
There the embers of my soul's one desire....you.
