Three Times

You were my tornado
And we fought for dear life
But all of that matters little
In this fateful night
We come to this apex
A fate we can't ignore
And I see the gates of my hell
In your car door
I thought you'd say goodbye
And never look back
But you did, and three times
You slid your hands to my back
And held me as if I mattered
And all of the while
I knew that I was foolish
Thought I knew your style
But I didn't because you
couldn't leave me 
And I will never trade in that
feeling 
It's all I need in this world of ours
My blood was slow congealing
And you looked into my eyes
And three times kissed me dear
And three times, I reveled in this madness
You had given to me here
Three times, you pulled back 
to look into my eyes
Three times, I amazed myself
To think i had this prize
Your kisses weren't agressive
They were nothing but heartfelt
Nothing can match your tenderness
Your honesty makes me melt
And now, as I finally find this joy
Now, as prayers were answered above
You're leaving now for a long, hard time
I know now I'm forever in love.
