Sometimes I wonder
How you could change my mind
When everything is set in stone
When I got everything aligned
You twist my gut
Turn my head
Making me doubt my future
I'm not saying
It's a bad thing
I always question myself
Just not about these things
These were the things
That made sense
That were, concrete
But every time you speak
And every time we meet
I'm thrown off my feet
And my face gets thrown
Into that concrete -ness
I'm in a whirlwind
That's throwing me for my money
A tornado
Hot and cold
As my life flashes before me
You are the hot
To my cold
Quite literally
Actually
I smile to myself
Thinking how warm
You are
And how you make me
You have a warmer view
On life
I wish you could sell to me
A warmer presence
In life
Everyone's dying to meet
Just a warm kind person
That makes you think
What kind of person he is
With such a good look on life
Despite its unfairness
To him
And everyone else
I ask you all the time
You always smile
And I realize you don't either
You just try your best
To think the world is better than it is
You make the most of it
You don't think about it
Just letting it be
I envy the part of you
Able to squash any bad
From your bright eyes
I wish I had your talent
But
I'll watch from your side instead
Nurture that warmth
Basking in its rays
Hoping that it'll hit me
And keep darkness away
I'll keep it safe
Away from the dark
Because that's where I know best
I'll keep those eyes for myself
As I nuzzle in your chest
Kiss me any day
I'll always hold you tighter
And some day those shiny eyes
Will make my own brighter
