Your raven-black hair Your masculine forehead Your defined jaw The color of your skin (which everybody thinks is too tanned) But I just want to melt into the chocolate color I sit and try not to Stare Because the curves of your mouth Your perfect nose The way you tilt your head and a lock falls in front of your ear Makes me want to touch with my fingertips And inhale like I could live of off the breath of you And taste (just one kiss please) But I can’t and I won’t So I don’t Stare nor look nor do I dare to even glance Because you will feel it, my eyes deceive me The lingering thoughts of how your absence makes me feel unhealthy, how your ghost haunts me I am afraid that I will want to curl up in your lap and never face the world again And we can not let that happen Thus I pretend you are dead to me And that I do not know you everyday over and over again Its called self-preservation Which after all those years came a bit late But, Better late than never (right?) So I die over and over again Because reality is I am convinced you belong to me and I belong to me And I still love you (afraid always will) |
