You wake me up.
You woke me up.

You opened my eyes
to what passion was like,
as if I never heard of it before
and dreamed its existence
as only a word and not a feeling
until you wake me up
until you woke me up
keeping my eyes open to the sound
of love throwing itself upon
a table leaving itself exposed
to daggers that I'll never throw
yet my passion for you
could make me throw daggers
at anyone you told me to.

You wake me up.
You woke me up.
