As his fingers touched deep within my soul,
A flicker of something stirred and took control.
No longer seeking wealth or worldly desires,
My heart longed for a glimpse of your fire.
Like a compass, my thoughts always lead to you,
Yearning to see your face, to feel your love so true.
With every touch, you breathe life into my being,
A connection so profound, it's all-consuming.
A single tear cascades down my cheek,
Poignant proof of a love that's far from weak.
You are the final thought in my fleeting mind,
A cherished memory, an eternal bind.
Beneath this false smile, my heart silently weeps,
Longing for solace, as the pain runs deep.
Lost within a labyrinth, seeking an escape,
Yet landing in the same spot, caught in this cruel tape.
Living on scraps, surrounded by apes so vain,
False titans who think they reign supreme, but only feign.
Strike them down, like Mikasa with her might,
Enveloped in victory, draped in the fight.
At their wake, I'll eulogize with kindness and grace,
For they helped me rebuild, in this swirling chase.
My thoughts and destiny reshaped, now I embrace,
This hustle, this struggle, I won't let it go to waste.
The wounds of hurt and pain are finally laid to rest,
No longer does my heart race in distress.
For a lover's heart may be worn and worn out,
But within it lies strength, there's no doubt.
In the depths of darkness, I found my might,
Bouncing back from every knock, ready to take flight.
As I reclaim my thunder, my lightning, my clout,
I deserve a shout-out, for love within me sprout.
