So I'm lost,
And kind of. . .
Drowning in you.
I want to cry and I want to sing
I can't think
Not with my head
Not with my heart
Not with anything
I'm just dazed,
So confused
What way is up?
Because I'm falling down.
Or maybe sideways
Falling
Falling
Falling for you.
Your voice is a melody and my heart's its company
I shouldn't be like this
I keep saying it is wrong,
To be so misconstrued.
Because I say you're beautiful
And I mean it with every sinew
Of my poor pattering little heart.
All I can do is devise ways to make you believe me
How can I succeed though,
When I could never begin to say enough to you?
Drowning in the lyrics of
Previously neglected love songs.
Since they illustrate,
What it is I'm continually trying to say.
It's never enough,
No.
Never will I fully be able to express what I want to say
Whether on whim of poetry
Or sobering morning promise
All these words whispered between sunrise and sunset,
Parallel only my most honest:
I love you.
