I sat there pondering the possibilities of what we could become
I mean I've never known a smile without strings attached
But you gave it with no effort
like a gift passed down through generations as a memento of beautiful moments held in the pit of my adolescent mind
Still I felt warmth
So warm
A slight discomfort crept in my stomach and across my skin racing along my arms
pouring sweat on top of the glow of my skin.
I've lost days in this
Stuck in this dramatic emphatic maze that left me trapped chasing the aroma of cheese
hoping the allure would lead me back to a place where we become free....
Still I couldn't forget past encounters
that were positioned and repositioned on top of counters
which lead me to the thought of our first encounter by way
Dumb is a word misused
especially after the hopiful association next to the word free
We were two crayons used to fill in the shallow lines of other's
all the while being used down before ever getting a chance to fill in the gaps of our own,
More so we were ignorant to the fact we stood more complete than used nubs placed back in a warped box tucked in a miscellaneous drawer
we were two dreams unfertilized but planted at the awkwardly right time
just the opportunities didn't match views of our sunshine
So we grew like fragile looking bamboo
yet strong enough to hold the weight of whoever stood their overweight insecurities and misguided egos on our shoulders
But see
I found myself tired of looking down holding my head up or just simply looking around
placing myself in so many worthless situations is the reason why I took myself off the market.
but it's true what they say
when you looking for something it's hard to find
when you stop looking and most cases it's simply found
I gave up before then
then there's you
my perfect love song
Though we don't always get along in five minutes we'll strong finishing each other's sentences
That corny movie that I got to admit
All the live I've been through you make it worth it.
If there's truly no such thing as perfection I can say this.
For me your perfect and that's it!
