You knew as I now know

Standard
You knew as I now know
You came as a surprise
You woke me from my slumber
You took my heart and shook it so
You came to do a job but I knew that I would fall for you

You knew that I was guarded and unsure
You knew that your heart wasn't ready for me but I knew it was 
You knew I was yearning to be touched in every way
You knew in those first moments you had to make me yours 

I knew you would bring me to myself again
I knew I needed to be reminded of what others saw when they looked in my eyes
I knew that your hunger for my flesh was the beast I needed to break those chains
I knew you had welcomed the challenge

You knew I was something you could not attain without a true agenda
You knew this would be short lived
You knew that you would pull away the moment you felt your heart open
You knew it when it was to late 

I knew I wouldn't run from love
I knew I would be frightened but not deterred 
I knew I wanted more but you are not the more

You know I love you and will offer all you have never known
You know I am a mystery that feels like home
You know your nights are restless until I am in your arms
You now know what it is like to call someone "home"

I know I love you
I know I want you
I know I will always hold a place for you in my heart but
I know I will soon have to walk away

You know what is to come of us
You know you will miss me and I will you
 
I know it will not be easy but I must go
