lover

written for my love, my friend, a home, my zen (April 16, 2018)

Met you with a pretty girl in hand

But I liked it I could understand 

My body vibrating

Connection unsaid, there is no debating

 

I moved a little closer,    baby

Your body near mine 

My world, melted away 

as I unwind

 

Moving a little closer              I've been

longing to be sober 

When was the last time 

you think saw me well?

Cause lately I do find 

myself hiding in my shell 

 

I didn't mean to find you weeping 

knowing you let go is so relieving 

When I see

That vulnerability

Not alone together but we are still free 

 

What have I said to make you question that

Honesty is all of me it is no harm in fact 

Look in my eyes obliviously disguised 

Reciprocal attraction causes me to ask why

 

Do I want you to see, the empty parts of me, chaotically and promising an open mystery

 

When our minds    

Connect 

I feel intertwined 

And yet

I fail to compromise

Conceptualizing time 

The energy flows out of me

The rest is left behind
