Electricity doesn't fly off of your fingers and rip it's way into the bones of mine. Your hands are worn and clammy, instead. I don't feel a deeper meaning when you stare into my eyes like a cat before he pounces. I feel a longing for understanding, and a desire for comfort and solace in the anonymity of a breath of fresh air; in a new, and perhaps forgettable face. Trust to care for valuable possessions doesn't translate to "friend"-- especially in such a finite amount of time. Yet, there's something in the tone of your chicken fried, velvet chocolate voice that tells me otherwise. Perhaps I am a challenge; an intellectual conquest. Never the matter, something is brewing, and I want a sip.

A newness to life
Electricity doesn't fly off of your fingers and rip it's way into the bones of mine. Your hands are worn and clammy, instead. I don't feel a deeper meaning when you stare into my eyes like a cat before he pounces. I feel a longing for understanding, and a desire for comfort and solace in the anonymity of a breath of fresh air; in a new, and perhaps forgettable face. Trust to care for valuable possessions doesn't translate to "friend"-- especially in such a finite amount of time. Yet, there's something in the tone of your chicken fried, velvet chocolate voice that tells me otherwise. Perhaps I am a challenge; an intellectual conquest. Never the matter, something is brewing, and I want a sip.
