Mister J  Jan 2018

Mister J Jan 2018
It took me just one look
Just one unexpected happenstance
To change the path I walk on
And let my heart take control of me

I was an unassuming guy
Who people would often only pass by Staying only in the background
Afraid to be exposed on the limelight

You were a sweet summer sunshine
Who makes any man look twice
Confident and beautiful, radiant as sunlight
You're a once in a lifetime jackpot, a needle in the haystack

But loneliness devours you
People took advantage of you
You're sweetly kind demeanor abused
And you were left and torn to pieces

Nevertheless I took a chance
I vowed to make you smile perpetually
Pick up the pieces and repair what's left
Shape it and make it feel something new

No matter your past iniquities
Nor your present insecurities
No matter what scarred you deeply
Nevertheless, you'll always have me

Nevertheless I'll stay honest and true
Nevertheless I'll stay madly in love with you
Nevertheless I'll try to ease the hurt and pain
Nevertheless you'll always be a precious gain

You are the one my eyes see
Not your past nor your future
Regardless of what made or broke you
I fell in love, deeply and truly with you

I'm in love with you regardless
I may never know any reason why
But I do know that my heart and soul
Body and spirit, they all belong to you
A pledge of love regardless of the past or future, only the present, only you.

The shadows Know...

Nevertheless,the shadows know

Yet the shadows now linger

I could lose it all...

Don't expect me to smile

Because it may never be seen

It could be wasted in shadows

Yet, I could lose it all

I was once a whisper of wind

The fragrance of withered

Burnt roses of darkness white

I could lose it all

Yet the shadows know

At this present time

I had not yet come

From a preceding time

Nevertheless,the shadow was cool

Yet, the enigma could never be understood

Nevertheless,in spite of...

I wanted to and yet I haven't the courage to

She was strange yet kind

I once marveled at this curious melancholy of dreams

Nevertheless,and inscrutable it's beauty once were

With pretty cares so slightly to misunderstand

She was strange yet kind

I could lose it all

Nevertheless,only the shadows know

There was nothing of this world that I ever wanted

There was nothing of this world that I ever wanted more

There was nothing of this world that I ever wanted less

Don't expect me to smile,because it will be lost of shadows

I see the world through melancholy eyes

She was strange yet kind

Nevertheless,only the shadows know
I thought I lost you the other day
I dreamt I was standing by your grave
But you were only a few blocks away
But I lost you nevertheless

I thought I saw you the other day
But it was a stranger wearing your coat
The one I gave you on your birthday in May
But I lost you nevertheless

I thought I called you the other day
But I couldn't go through with it
Even if I missed you I know you´d say
I lost you nevertheless

I thought I got over you the other day
Got this feeling of relief in my chest
But even with the heartache at bay
I lost you nevertheless

I thought I lost you the other day
and you were saying it was for the best
But you were only a few blocks away
But I lost you nevertheless
Let me know what you think.
