I guess what they say about “Out of sight, out of mind” is false, or maybe it’s just me. Time has elapsed since you left but in my mind you are still among my fondest memories.

I have given you too much airplay in my mind, you monopolize my thoughts ten times out of nine. I feel weak around you, the way superman is around the green kryptonite stone. Wish I could have you, if chance would allow coz you are bad and you know it, you make cupid shoot me like aww!!!

Maybe this is loneliness talking or maybe am acting on impulse, whatever it is, I can’t deny that I want you. Now this aint that Romeo and Juliet fairytale kind of love that you see in movie screens or whatever love songs musicians sing, to me that ain't true. However, I have a genuine interest in you because of the way you make me feel and the way I feel about you, this much is true.

I hate the fact that am indecisive, probably u do too. Am a Libra man, always weighing out things, trying to find a balance between good and bad. But if my past experiences are anything to go by, I know that it’s a risky thing, love is. A risk worth taking. See you… you make me want to throw away my pros and cons and fall in blind, coz am already falling for you and the crazy things you do.

Wish I could move on… the way boys usually do but see I … I don’t want to.  I know that feelings sometimes fade and things sometimes change but I would love to try. Wish I could bribe time, love and chance, so that I could have my way with you.  It’s not nice to toy with feelings and I don’t intend to. I realized am a man of many wishes but if I had a genie, hypothetical, I would spend all my wishes wishing for true happiness.
Inspired by someone i met, a time well spent. She is gone now but in my mind she never left.
