Nights fade and seasons pass
Yet my love for you still stands
Standing in the open field of love
I see the green grass dance to the beat of my heart
And the sunny sky shine from the joy in my eyes
As I look at you.
You. Your eyes like stars twinkle against your dark skin
Your smile like butter melts my heart in sweetness
Your luscious lips produce music in my ears as you laugh
Your voice plays against the Strings in my chest, a Melody I wish to harmonize
Your presence like magnet draws myself to you.
You.
You look right into my eyes and out of it
Blind.
You part your lips and display shining pearls but not at me
Unfeeling.
Your laughter resonates with beauty but not for my jokes
Deaf.
You blow feather-light words like kisses and they float over me
Snob.
You draw near to me yet you're still so far away
A million invisible walls stand like soldiers between us
And I can't command the courage to walk by and say, "hey"
