Your words like drips in morning dew
Fall so freely from your lips with ever such a captivating hue
Your eyes meet mine and start a separate conversation
I’m lost in time with such wondrous frustration
The feeling of understanding flows through my veins
Injected by your syringe that within contains
Nothing that I have ever crossed paths with before
I’m stunned in amazement down to my very core
At that moment my mouth speaks no words
My mind gives a speech never to be heard
I have so much to say so now my eyes
Will try to convey my message and to my surprise
I simply have forgotten or maybe never learned
How to form these words or how they can be earned
Do my actions speak loud enough for you to hear
The sound of total comfort, the ringing of fear
Fear of looking at the summer sun too long
It’s beautiful and magnificent don’t get me wrong
But trusting too much and looking too far
You just might get hurt and maybe you’ll scar
Each moment I’m with you  I see a new side
Of who this man is, my thoughts collide
The sides haven’t added up and maybe never will
But do they even have to? My thoughts they spill
Out into words that can’t be taken back
Have I said too much? The train’s off the tracks
I plug up my mouth with a cork of defense
Don’t scare him away, don’t add your two cents
My thoughts I gather back up and tuck away
Maybe one day he’ll hear me say
The things I cage up with good intentions
Secrets so powerful, like a perfect invention
One day to be released in a beautiful symphony of relief
When I gather the confidence and truly believe
It is safe to break the flood gates built up in my mind
Holding back my thoughts, with feelings entwined
So the game of waiting is what we will play
Until I find the words for what I want to say
