Benevolent
No lines can compare to the signs of true love
Even the troubles of a couple dozen cousins can't dispose of
Cherish every bright moment, residing on the rock dove
Cold hands I understand, provide warm gloves
If happiness isn't enough, our past was quite rough
But the Earth we touch, you don't need make up
You're all I need
The motion of air I breath
Credibly an anomaly
That you bring me to equanimity
Escape the city and serendipity
You ignoring me is the process killing me
Battling obstacles of trilogy
I'm willing to show you I'm authentic
Write these notes to hold and protect it
Because it's the only thing I'm left with
But until I''m breathless
Everything I said I meant it
