Mine

This body is mine,

These emotions are mine,

Yet you send me shivering when you take my hand,

Can I call you mine?

This garden is mine,

The white and yellow roses are mine,

Yet you prick like a thorn when I tend to you

Can I call you mine? 

This house is mine,

These freshly red painted walls are mine,

I trap you inside the cages of my heart,

Can I call you mine?

This music I play is mine,

The art I create, just mine,

Each night my head weaving dreams of you,

Can I call you mine?

This life is mine and mine alone,

The air I breathe is mine to be,

But what if I tell you,

That with every breath I take,

I love you more and more,

Are you mine now?
