"This Feeling That I Have" [2006, Written For My Future Husband, Ian]
by Kiera Rose Lathan [Don't Use/Steal/Take/Be A Douche]
From tears and torment,
To smiles and laughter...
This is what I love.
I never thought that someone could just come into my life,
Look at me and smile,
And then make me feel positive, like there's hope left.
I don't want to rush this,
I just want to trust this..
This feeling that I have.
For a moment, I was a wasted void,
Ambling down the railroads of life,
Trying to find my train to happiness.
It startled me, the train.
Out of nowhere, it came for me.
I grabbed on tight,
And watched my horizon bloom.
Underneath the sparkling stars,
Looking into your glittering eyes,
I just know that I'm safe.
And this comfort I have not yet felt before,
Is taking me by suprise.
I don't want to rush this,
I just want to trust this..
This feeling that I have.
Many times have I been betrayed,
Berated and delayed.
I have just sewn the wounds,
Scared to enjoy life again.
But you've given me a sense of confidence,
And I can see your honesty in your smile.
The simplest thing can make me laugh,
And the smallest remark can make me smile,
And all of a sudden, I feel like I'm on air,
Like no one can touch me.
When you're beside me, there's really no hiding,
My pain diminishes and my sadness disappears.
I just want to try this, I don't want to deny this.
I want this chance.
I don't want to rush this,
I just want to trust this..
This feeling that I have.
