They say the eyes are the windows to your soul....

There is a place for you in my heart.
For a while I actually thought maybe you'd actually occupy it for once.
Whenever I thought about where I wanted my future to go, you were always in it, right there beside me.
I thought we were perfect for eachother.
We want to do the same things in the future, we have the same interests, we can entertain eachother for hours at a time.
And it all seemed to add up to 'perfect'.
But you decided not to keep me around.
Well, as long as you think you're happy..
Now I guess I'll never know what 'perfect' is.
Your space in my heart sits collecting dust that filters down from my soul.
I started out alone and in the end thats where I'll be.
Until you decide to come back and let the light in again.

My body is like a camera, you know how those work.
Your love is the light.
My soul is the film.
Our embrace is the aperture.
Your kiss is the button.
Its pace is the shutter speed.
My eyelids are the shutters.
Why don't you stop down the aperture and set the shutter speed,
To create an exposure that will last a lifetime?
