The soft beat, the smile on my face,
the satisfaction of finish, the proud look that
is invisible, nothing sets me back,
once understood the task of what had to be
done, set me up for the crush of a lifetime
of saying hello to what I don't want to leave
my mind, is there confusion in what is the meaning
don't tell me, describe it to me, and write it
back, if I smile am I lying, can you see the
gleam in my eyes, the silence of stars, the
business that is working together to form a
next move of how to be better, do better,
you never stood a chance.
I like the night better, the quiet sensuality of it
all, you don't have to try to impress anyone, the
light of what is remaining does it for you, it gleams
at all the curves just right, points out where to look,
what shouldn't be covered up, how long we should
walk, and when to speak sweet nothings that can
stay imprinted and uplifted to your everyday life.
Can I just say, unknown is better than known,
and faults shown make it all the better to know you,
because I've done the same, I'm in a shell, but for
what its worth trying harder is harder than it sounds,
because your the first that seems the same.
There are trademarks about me that people see,
I use my own symbol for guidance, but ever since
I can remember its changed inside, outside, at times
its insane, how I deal with it I don't know, but I
use what's there to help conceal any pain.
To end this night in the light of one that's farther
away than I last looked, I see my car, there's dents,
different colors, someone else's, my basketball hoop,
but without glasses I see what I want, and it keeps
me going until I have to turn around, and your face is
in the mirror, standing still, not in fear, how to have the
courage to break it and go through, it'll come one day,
but for now let me start slow with you, try to get
through the meanings given, and the silence, I'll make less
of it, because your the person who won't leave my mind,
your picture looks back at me, any romance that I see
I relate it to you, and I keep looking because I don't care,
I want to see you again, keep my promise you didn't hear
because its in the very black ink I'm wrote to you,
listen to my voice you heard a few days ago, your
stuck to me, the thing I drive for, but is stuck feet away,
I wanna get through it, so bear with me, try to get at me
too, this may be long to read, but these verses are the very
things I want to say to you.
