What do you do 
When you have too much love
Do you pour it down the drain
Give it away
Shower it on someone you know, who won’t take it
 
Not all of it
 
Its too much to carry around
 
And keep beside yourself everytime you sit
I think love isn’t really like that 
Its not just love its a whole lot of pain
Its longing, joy and all the blues
Its all the emotions heightened
Just the complete truth
Tell me
What do you do with too much love?
It makes me read lyrics when I’m alone 
Pouring through the lines
Listening to all the songs you send me
 
Thinking about how I’m not really alone
 
If you love me for me
It makes me go through every love quote about being selfless with every sense 
Of realization of maddening selfishness
 
Because I know my love isn’t like that
 
I’m always doubting it
 
Sometimes I feel you’re better off without me
 
And I’m not the only one who feels that
 
And it kills me if anybody repeats those sharp ended lines that are buried somewhere deep in my heart
But I want you next to me
 
I want to be, be next to you
 
How is that wrong, world?
Answer me
When you have too much love
I’ll call you my world.
What do you do with too much love 
When the ceiling in your room
 
Is just another form of substance
 
And everything else is far away
 
And my mind is not here
Not here never here
It ends up with too much
Too much love
 
Some days I tried my best, giving it out
 
But as it slipped from my hands
 
And seeped into other people’s skin
I started feeling empty
You see whenever I have made you the only receiptant
I have never grown empty
 
But only I am more and whole than all I have
 
Because there is always more for you
 
Your voice
and your words
 
and your days
 
Are forever written on my heart
Such is the love in my pockets
If I have any, I carry it in my arms
 
That pull you too close sometimes
 
My love is all consuming
 
It hungers for more and takes everything it can
 
I could compare it to a tsunami
Wrecking a city and its buildings and eating them all in one go
 
But I’d really like to believe that I’m more gentle than that
Some days when I leave it in my pockets
It makes me drown
 
Makes me sink
But everyday I learn to swim again
And become closer to the waves
No matter how much pain
I feel there is the double the happiness
 
That being the whisper of my heart
 
Everytime I am embraced with sorrow
 
You see its a height of drama
 
For everything to reach somewhere
 
The tears will have to build and destroy
 
The only home I know
 
So I can build it can

I hope you forgive this kind of tsunami love
And no part of me really feels like apologizing for it
 
But I hope you remember me
In days life become too still
And then I can just be a storm in your heart
Like you were in mine.
