I wouldn't say you're who I thought
I'd end up with someday,
but even still your southern voice
binds me here to stay.
A kiss please,
just a slight peck,
that's all I really need,
to show me that I'm not alone,
to let my stone heart feed,
but even this is still denied,
by distance and by time,
these things are not so easy,
as movies have implied.
And yes oh yes I've tried,
tried and strained and groaned,
but even after such persistence
I still remain alone.
Your sweet warm lips
they mock me,
tearing me inside,
your full smile
speaks to me,
of love and oft-cursed friendship,
burning me to ash.
But the worst has yet to come,
your deep brown eyes
reflect to me,
all I could not grasp.
