You told me you loved me For the first time today As you walked on by. Some scissors and a paintbrush gripped snug in your hands. The things I did not say Beat like my lungs; My heart. “I love you too man,” “You’re the best thing that’s happened to me this year,” “I miss you” The things I did echoed in a whisper ‘Kira’ You painted my life -a lovely heather grey Basked in your beauty -and I’m lost on the way You could cut it to shreds -I’d never complain Not for you Kira -I still love the rain

Scissors and A Paint Brush
You told me you loved me For the first time today As you walked on by. Some scissors and a paintbrush gripped snug in your hands. The things I did not say Beat like my lungs; My heart. “I love you too man,” “You’re the best thing that’s happened to me this year,” “I miss you” The things I did echoed in a whisper ‘Kira’ You painted my life -a lovely heather grey Basked in your beauty -and I’m lost on the way You could cut it to shreds -I’d never complain Not for you Kira -I still love the rain
