Get a clue,
I wanna get with you,
I have a strong intuition,
that you are feeling the
same way too, but
you won't step to me,
however, I won't front,
do you wanna get with me,
or I'm not what you want???
I see you checkin,
trying to scope me out,
I got you at full attention,
trying to see what
I am all about, but
Now that, I GOTS YOU, and
It's clear and plain to see,
You're hesitant about approaching,
So, What's it gonna be???
You know that, I SEE YOU!! and
all of your clever ways,
Your swag and your demeanor,
have me hooked on you for days,
So, Instead of me just sitting here,
feeling all sad and all blue,
Are you feeling what I'm feeling???
I'd just wished that you'd get a clue

A view in sight
Appreciated in mind
Whole view, take in the whole picture
White shoes, takes you wherever
Come closer, I beg to differ
But I'm convinced, weak willed
Poetry I make
What difference does it make
The board that you revolve around
Stuck like a kid confused
Wondered I am
Amazed of what I see
A stare only I can be
Will you ever get to see?

You were like the moon to me,
Always far from my reach
Only to be adored by my sight.
Always hoped you for mine to be
Even prayed for you with all my might.

Always craved to get a glimpse of you
Always felt captivated by the light of you
Without you I felt like I lost my light
As you were the one to light my dark pit of sorrow

You made me want to reach the height
You were the one I didn’t want anyone to borrow
For you were the one without whom my sky felt hollow

I liked the phases you displayed
Even liked the spots you had
For they showed the beauty of being tainted
Just wanting to hold you made me glad
Yet beyond my reach
Only to be adored by my sight.

As I ponder, sweetly mused,
your grace against the breeze,

I cower at the frightful task
of earning but a please.

Your humble smile, your giddy laugh,
of which I must appease,

I sink into my sullen soul,
unable to unfreeze.

For with this heart, I cannot pledge
to you your beauty’s ease.

you laughed at my anger
I took it as a sign
a sign you didn't care
didn't understand me

but I was the one who didn't understand
I was the one who took your laughter as disrespect
it was just you trying
trying to calm down my flames

you were only trying to fix me
fix what's going to happen next
change it so it doesn't get bad
you were the one understanding me

I just took it as
as...
as something I can't explain
but you can clearly explain it

break it down and explain it to me
that's what I admire but I also misunderstand you so much
I don't deserve you
I really don't...

With a voice that fails me
I aim at the lines between your hope and my despair
With a needle, in an effort to achieve precision
To stitch our thoughts together
They’re so similar, so different
You think of October as a warm home
And I see it as a cold houseguest
And we co-exist in this oblivion
This circle of this or that
I admire your willingness to fill spaces
And you question my fear of being heard
You relish in the colours of fall
And I dread the looming winter
How is it that we left September
Hand-in-hand, wishing for rain...
