Your Contemporary
(a note written with love and respect for the future girlfriend of the boy I loved)I never did know how to love and love again
Nor do I know where to begin
I wrote him pieces stemmed straight from the heart
Loved him with the depth and intensity of a poet in every part
Nights I spent sleepless- a heart beaming with love and sometimes with pain,
I loved him with the galaxy inside of me and expect you to do the same
I demand respect for the man I respected so
He clearly isn't ordinary if you must know
He's a special kind of beaux,
More than the obvious he offers so so much more
And no, this isn't from a heart that is sore
These are the words of a caretaker who wants the world to feel balanced
His happiness matters as do all those who touched my heart in every part
Pureness and rawness is a definite must
If you are to replace me you have to play your part
Now you'll take up the corners of those 4 chambers
My love has been replaced and transformed and dismembered
Don't be the usual and base your actions on this world's wisdom
You're astonishing as seen with my heart's vision
You're great in my eyes
(Gwen Stefani ~cool)
And with that last lyrical note I say goodbye
