Sweatheart, Lovely, Dear
I know all I say eludes you now
Your heart has been stained I hear
Heres to you my strong hurt soul
You'll rise again, though I know you doubt it so
Heres to you my shoulder and ear
A written embrace solely for you
To be read, and kept always
To be abused through and through
Lend me your ear
Untouched as is a strangers judgement
I will expose my deepest fear
For my darling, sweet
Refrain from knowing me
For soon I will find again
No one other but me
Brief
There you were
Sitting. looking at me.
As I entered the room
I noticed the twinkle of curiosity
In your deep green eyes
There just sitting there
Took me by surprise
You reached for my hand
Warm to cold
Funny I thought, the perfect smile you hold
Your voice humble yet sincere
I recall the tones of it , oh so clear
For a brief moment in the same room
I grew fond of you all to soon
The innocent smile and soothing voice
Calm yet nervous for you had no choice
But to be bare and be bold in your imperfections
While I listened with lingering affection
Suddenly there you were, and startled me
By requesting me to play my songs
From the sidelines
It is easy for you to say
"Make a move, follow your heart"
You're merely a bystander watching from the sidelines
Not a single step away from falling apart
Honestly I embrace, value your wise words
If only they wouldn't turn to dust
Everytime my mind speaks of you
If only they wouldn't turn to dust
