That Feeling

[Nux]

You know that feeling?
That feeling.
It only happens once in a while,
and it happens when you meet someone special.
You feel complete.
It feels like rose petals are flying around everywhere,
everytime a pleasant breeze blows.
In the ocean of emotions, I am floating on the top.
I feel so light I believe I can fly.
All I have to do is spread out my wings
and I'll be flying.
But I can't do it alone.
I need you there with me, because without you,
the rose petals all fall to the ground,
the pleasant breeze stops blowing,
and I start feeling heavier,
and drown to the bottom,
where only the most hated of the emotions stay.
Without you,
I will be left incomplete.
