The Way This Sounds
Show me an expression that I haven’t seen before
Anticipation runs deep, your eyes run deep
I want you the way that no one is capable of,
The way that no one can think to want anyone
As is water, you are fresh, touched.
I search for a way to meet ways,
Ways that weren’t existing ahead of you.
Blurry and exciting and tasteless!
We are not up to the social standards
I find that perfectly unacceptable
And how I can’t seem to push you away
And how I wouldn’t know where that way would go.
Your lips move in motions I can hear
Naturally, like breathing and no balance in this world.
It even sounds false to me,
But I think that’s what makes this lovely
I find it frightening that I am scared
Scared to meet you, get to know the equation of you
And these cliché similes can’t be lies
Because I am not possible of that level of deception
From what I have seen so far,
Your voice is piercing,
Your eyes say I am too.
