You came, you conquered.

We have flaws, our love has flaws
and a perfect love was never what I searched for
and I never searched for you
you came, and you conquered.

When I had just learned to smile at, laugh with, love and live life
you came into my life
I never called it an interference
and acceptance was no favor either
It was an effortless pleasant welcome
when you came, and you conquered.

The love was unconditional
Still, there stood social rules
We tried playing deceiving games
But people aren't fools
Your introduction to a greater part of my life
and when you came, you conquered.

Now that the life is hollow
and I can't see you
There is emptiness all around
the laughter haunts
and the smiles are no where to be found
Now that you've left, and I'm still conquered
my life floats in the thin air
and the dark spirits play with it
and I howl like a small child
I beg of them to walk away
to leave me alone, and stop their play
Me, with those smiles, and the thin air
as I breathe, nothing seems fair

You talked of perfectness when life was at it's best
I talk of imperfections, when death is at it's worse
I'm not scared of tears,
you can keep your fears
just take me with you
as I breathe these last breaths
be by my side
and be the same perfect man,
I never searched for,
when you had just come, and conquered.
