You see not a day passes by, without you visiting my mind.
For months I've been wrestling with these feelings that i have you,
I've brushed aside so many girls just waiting for you,
Other girls don't excite me no more because my eyes only see you,
Talking to new girls has become a problem for me because it feels like I'm cheating on you.
This might be the hardest piece I've had to write about you,
But do you blame me?
These mixed signals are killing me,
I've played the waiting game for too long,
I'm sure you have no idea how agonizing this wait is,
But I blame me,
You kicked me off my feet and i lost my game,
My palms sweating profusely,
My voice breaking ceaselessly,
Your beauty had me perplexed,
My legs repudiated to approach you.
Almost a year later you still got me whipped,
Mona Lisa I'm anxiously waiting,
I'm the guy you always wanted,
I've envisioned our life together,
I'm the 'come and stay' in this world of 'come and go'.
I don't want to read your favourite scripture,
So i try to paint the perfect picture,
So Mona Lisa if you reading this...
I'm still convinced the rest of my life looks like you.
