Fifteen-hundred miles away,
There's a heart out there beating for you.
And under the same starry sky
The dancing lights burn his hope anew.
He's breaking inside for you,
But still he remains standing tall.
He holds on tightly to a picture of his love
Because he believes that love can over come all.
He cries himself to sleep every night
Reciting a prayer with your name.
He'll hold on to you through everything
Because he knows that you're worth the pain.
Each and every perfect word you say,
He jots down and holds in the back of his heart
Even though everyday he wakes without you
Causes the words he holds dearest to tear him apart.
He's not searching for his Cinderella
Because he knows he's already found her.
There's no need to him to wander aimlessly
When he's already fitted the glass slipper.
You're his Cinderella, he cannot deny,
And he's come at last to steal you away.
He's determined to hold you in his arms,
As he excitedly counts down the days.
Each passing second is an eternity to him.
Each moment spent without you
Is a moment forever wasted,
But one that moves him forever closer too.
You're his priceless New York diamond,
The only thing worth fighting for.
You're the only light still shining
At the deepest part of his core.
He will never be willing to let go,
He'd much rather himself to die
Than ever have to bid farewell
To you, his little butterfly.
-For Eryka Leigh Nolan, MY little butterfly. <3
