If I'm to find you,
Let me find you in the shade
The sun reveals too much
I might scare and run away

If I'm to love you
Let me love you slowly
                   over time
I'm so rapidly wrapped up
Still more rapidly
                   untied.

I've always thought I needed
this feeling of flying
But I could try
s l o w  and  s t e a d y
Less free fall,
more climbing

It isn't fair
Spinning you around like this
I know.

But I'm no good at gardening
Always pulling
flowers up
before they can grow.
