Words from your mouth
July 22, 2002 @ 10:21 a.m.
Who am I...what do I want...
I want you
I want your gaze on me, I want your silly smile and silly laugh
I would attempt
I would try for you
and although I'm not chronically deep at least we could share some breathless nights
discussing music and politics
and touching each other and asking if it's okay or not
Does it feel good? We want to be honest you know and so when you say no I move my hand lower until you say yes
and I could get to like the comfort in your eyes
Even enough to wave goodbye to pain
Maybe I'll always be insecure, that's just my outlook on life
but I just might be changing my mind for you
and look at those hands of yours,
their beauty that always makes me breathless
their veins and sinews that
stretch for those strings
The way they wave or brush sweat
from those eyes
(another topic I could write on
till my adjectives ran dry)
Maybe it seems like a good idea
to write on your perfection
like a child drawing circles with a crayon
and I can't wait to find something wrong with you
See to me that would make you ever so much more lovable
and isn't that what I'm looking for?
Although I may not be ruined if I can't be with you
Tears will still fall for you
whether you ask for them or not they will still fall for you
I'm so tired of pleading and listening and giving in
I'm tired of whining and waning away from you
And all I want is for you to like me
just to like me and I'm still
waiting for those words from your mouth
