My Love

[Spaz-tic]

"My Love"

I see you across the room,

Sometimes in a crowded hall,

And all the time I wonder,

What if you knew?

What if you knew I loved you?

Like the rising morning sun.

What if you knew I wanted you?

Needed you, oh so badly.

But I am me. And you, are you.

I sometimes think,

Would we ever workout?

I sometimes think,

Could we be a perfect couple?

But I am me. And you, are you.

One time I brushed against you,

And I thought the world stopped turning.

And birds sang of my feelings.

"He loves you so!"

But I am me. And you, are you.

Make my mood swing,

Make my heart sing,

All the little things,

I remember of you.

But I am me. And you, are you.

Wish we could be together,

Like true love, grow old together.

Love, laughter, loss,

All I feel with you.

But I am me. And you, are you.

You put yourself down,

And I act like a clown,

While I wonder why,

You hate yourself so.

But I am me. And you, are you.

Ever loved someone and know,

They could never love you back?

Ho how cruel!

That I am me. And you, are you.

[Bruin Fisher]

I love the chorus 'I am me. And you, are you.'

That comma, so significant, changing the inflection of the line. 'As for you, well, you are, sadly, just you!' All hidden in that little comma.

You are showing that you're an accomplished poet, Dustin. Lovely to read another of your pieces.
