Will you lend me your ear,
Will you hear my mundane and otherwise ignored words?
Gushings of the heart that fall upon deft ears.
She is in all normalcy a girl that otherwise falls as another face
But all the same...
Can i tell you about her?
To me she is above expectations of any women.
I often find myself losing all train of thought when we speak
diving in and out of consciousness while pursuing the thoughts.
Why me? Shes so much more than I am.... What does she see?
As i think to myself she catches my wondering and mistakes it for disinterest.
I do not dare tell her how imperfect I feel next to her yet so complete.
So
An apology, a kiss, a smile...that will have to do for now.
My ramblings of her must surly bore you.
I apologize to you too.
But to be next to someone that makes your breathe leave your lungs,
to have your heart not only beat so quick it might burst but for it to burn with lust for them,
One can not help but want to speak out, create, or express their passion in a beautiful manner.
Lingering self doubts fade as we kiss
Uncomfortable stares dissipate in a tight embrace.
I fell whole, I pray to know she does too.
But i am to much of a coward to ask, fearing the answer.
I pleaded for you to let me tell you about her.
I have told all I can.
Thank you stranger, for your ear, your silence and your patience with such a rambling.
I wrote this about a special girl in my life. I'm to cowardice to say many of these things out loud, but thank you for being the ear to listen to my silence that i hope speaks loud
