Analysis of I like you
Days seem so short
Sleep fills endless hours
Dreams wander in
Waring away your powers
Breath after breath
Your anger wears thin
I wonder where my life ends
And where love begins
But then you transform
Into a piercing ray of light
Pushing your limits
And trying to fight
Your way out of darkness
And then you find sight
Of the one you hold dear
To love, to find might
You hold them close
And share a pure feeling
Gifted from the heavens
One that reaches all ceilings
Touching each being
Greatest and small
Growing into a design
Grander than them all
A design of love
Straight from the heart
One that no logic
Could hold up to art
For it would blind them
With exstacy
A joy unless loved by yourself
You can't see
A feeling for it
Would alone set you free
But then you have to ask
Does someone like you
Like someone like me?
