if i told you i was scared
would you get it?
are you scared too?
do you know that you...
you are someone special and
i don’t want to look back someday
and see all of my mistakes or
feel i have things to regret
i’m not so good at doing
anything just right
and i just never had anyone
wanting that same thing
on the other side
i think i get what you
want because i just want
this good to stay good
i just want to have you
there somewhere
and i love that i am
so understood
i keep trying to slow
myself down
and then something
inside me runs away
and i have to chase it
back around
maybe some things
can’t be tied into a bow
they run their course
and you have to just
let things happen
become one with the flow
at some moments
i freeze in fear
i shake it off and cover
my ears
i don’t want to be
too afraid of your words
they are so close
sometimes so near
i don’t want to be complicated
but i never was close to
simplicity in my thoughts
i just want to find a way
for it be enough
i just want to find the place
where i can always
smile about you
and be so glad that i found you
when i see your face
i don’t want to
have these fears about you
i don’t want to be afraid
of letting you in
because a little too often
i sit and think
of nothing else
but what it would be like
to lick the taste of
every where you’ve ever been
I hope you are smiling where you are. That’s all I really ever want from you.
