I see you riding my way,
Your eyes gazing into mine
Even from this distance.
Up and down, up and down,
You bounce, and my eyes
Follow your every move
In aching need and want,
Longing desperation like the
Tides reaching hungrily for the sun.

You are my sun,
Blazing your light through
The darkness that has enveloped my life.
You are the rays of golden light
That pierced the hands that clasped my throat
And shattered their grip upon me.

That fateful night, so very long ago
When we first met, you rescued me
From so much more than just the crash.
You saved my life and my soul.
You made me believe in all the good
That I never dared before.

You saved my life.
You saved my soul.
Your light broke through my shadows
And made me want to live.

Others think that you're shy
And I am the strong one.
Do you even know the truth?

I doubt you'd ever imagine
That it was your light, your strength
That gave me the strength
To live, to believe, to dream, to wish, to reach
For a better tomorrow, a good future
Away from my Father's trap,
Outside of the Luthor heritage of evil,
For a day when we can look
At each other, into one another's eyes,
All masks gone and no need for shields,
And I can finally say without
The fear that fills my thundering heart and trembling soul,
"I love you, Clark Kent."

The End
