You always walk a few steps ahead
In crowded places, a shadow falls As I look at you leave me behind You send me sweet messages In moments alone, no one is there And I long for its constancy to fill my day You urge my silence and understanding When a call comes, and I hear And I stare blankly as my heart breaks You spend moments with me so divine Ecstatic! But always bittersweet As I know it’s just but stolen You utter your goodbyes in haste Shifting moods, a thread breaks As you become the man not mine |
You say this is the best you’ve ever had
Above everyone else, a trophy And yet your friends know me not I remain hidden in a closet Taken out when wanted, and the time is right And always returned at the end of the day You then go your way Opposite mine, towards where you belong As I strive to erase the visions that creep in my mind It just doesn’t seem right, not fair That a love so deep, remains buried in secrecy Why can it not be heralded at all?
