A love poem
Toyed with and void were most of my days
I’d thought life was over for me in so many ways
Bar hopping wasn’t my scene, a bleeding heart story I didn’t need
For until I met you, it was my own that did bleed
I didn’t care much for myself or anyone else
Had had enough of pretentious games, put my heart on a shelf

I was searching for something unique, and it was you that I found
Until then, I’d been lonely, incomplete, and jerked around
The search ended when I looked into your deep blue eyes
And found what I’d been looking for was there undisguised
The search was over

You swept me into your arms and said you’d always be mine
That you’d feel that way until the end of time
Another line I thought it to be in the beginning
For I was a woman who just wasn’t used to winning
Now my heart I give to you freely and with no regrets
Our hearts became one when put to the test

I was searching for something unique, and it was you that I found
Until then, I’d been lonely, incomplete, and jerked around
The search ended when I looked into your deep blue eyes
And found what I’d been looking for was there undisguised
The search was over

All I’ve ever dreamed of I found in you
I keep asking myself if it’s too good to be true
I want you and need you more than you’ll ever know
I’d never imagined I could love someone so
Baby, don’t break my heart, keep your promise to me
The search ended when you became my destiny

I was searching for something unique, and it was you that I found
Until then, I’d been lonely, incomplete, and jerked around
The search ended when I looked into your deep blue eyes
And found what I’d been looking for was there undisguised
The search was over

Ignite the fires of love that are felt inside
Give me reason to believe I’ve no more reason to hide
Burn me with the kisses only you and I share
I’m weary of playing truth or dare
My search was over when I found your love was true
You gave me your all, and I gave mine to you

I was searching for something unique, and it was you that I found
Until then, I’d beel lonely, incomplete, and jerked around
The search ended when I looked into your deep blue eyes
And found what I’d been looking for was there undisguised
The search was over
Baby, when I found you, my search was over
