On that very spot

He took me to his secret place,
The one he said only the two of us would know.
I first believed he wanted to murder me on that very spot,
Without even a single witness to my demise.
I thought I would die there alone, destroyed to the very core.
On that very spot.

He took my hands and my heart skipped a beat
I forgot how to breathe, I was expecting for the fatal blow
And then, he simply knelt in front of me
Oh, Shocker! Oh, surprise! Is he going to deliver the fatal blow?
He spoke those words that made me go weak in the knees
on that very spot.

He pledged his love for me, told me I was important to him
And I listened to his words, I let them sink in.
He said he would protect us, he said he would fight for us
And I genuinely believed him because I knew he wasn't lying.
He offered himself to me. He simply did.
On that very spot.


« Would you want someone like me to always be there for you? »
« What kind of promise is it? Don't make promises you can't keep. »
He looked at me with eyes full of mischief as he knew I was troubled
Unused to his words, unused to his love, I didn't know how to react
But always he was kind, always he was patient with me, so he waited for me.
On that very spot.

« Are you sure you want to love me? » It was a binding promise
« Of course I do. Do you? » He stared at me with his piercing brown eyes
I nodded before words failed me and my throat was too tight.
He rose and pulled me against his frame for an embrace
And we danced, and we celebrated
On that very spot.

« you make me happy. You make me whole. » I could hear him repeat
« Not as whole as you make me feel. » I replied with the truth.
I didn't ask for much, I didn't want much from him.
No need for jewels and riches, no need for grandiose, no need for chic
I simply required one thing from him, one thing only.
On that very spot.

« Be true, my love. Be true to me. It's all I want. »
« True I would be, on my soul I promise. »
I didn't want him to make promises, I only wanted to see it happen.
He knew so he simply spun me around while we kissed, sealing our deal.
He stole my broken heart and took it with him, but he gave me his whole being
On that very spot.
