Unrequited
He said Fall for me See me as I wish to be seen Want me so badly That you forget who you are Abandon yourself So that all you have to rely on Is me and my opinion Betray yourself Surrender your authority To serve me and mine Only then will I love you When you are so hobbled You can never leave me He said Fall Throw yourself on my altar And I will cut you to suit my mood She said Rise for me See me for who I am Feel me so deeply That you remember who you are Recall your strength Gather your energy Bring yourself to your feet Bear yourself with integrity Hold your heart with care So that you can offer me A safe place to be soft A warm place to lay myself bare A home to infuse with my love She said Rise Stand beside me That we may create heaven on earth He said Rising Is too hard I will not relinquish my hell In fear of not reaching your heaven She said Falling Is too easy I will not relinquish my heaven In certainty of reaching your hell
