The Man

There's not quite a face like yours

No one else but me adores

Mapped out, pinned inside my head

Still think of you when I lay in bed

 

I asked if we could get a picture

You obliged and said, "Okay, sure,"

Your braces cyan at that time

Wished right then that you'd be mine

 

Then you left and went to places

Red was the color of your braces

Last time, you got to Singapore

Back home I rotted to the core

 

Saw you then not too long after

Give or take just one year later

Turned my head back, saw your smile

Happiest I've felt in a while
