Poem
What Matters Most Shadows linger in the living-room It feels that something is watching over me I like the way you make me smile...it wipes away the gloom It sends those shadows far away at sea Look around and you'll see That you belong with me Free your mind from rue Potential is what I see in you Ch: I just happened to bump into you - it was perfect like butter and toast I had a temporary high and then, I greet grief...I know it's brief... But, it makes me stop breathing and all hope seems to fade away like a ghost Feeling dumb and wasting time...time that I should have used up for relief Sounds like you focus too hard on worries than on what matters most What matters most What matters most is that you and I are meant to be together in unity Smile, baby, smile for a little while now You shine triumphantly somehow Leaving so soon? No, I don't think so So you say that you're going with the flow Look around and you'll be With me and all that's inside of me This love in my heart beats on with unique passion constantly...rapidly... It's like the dawn and the dusk colliding with each other in serenity Ch If I fall, would you be right next to me? If I lose my grip, will you build me up? For I'm Mr. Lonely and you are something else I see Would you catch me and pick me off my feet? I noticed that you're as golden as wheat If I hug you, would you accept my hugs? I'm getting tired of throwing our uncertainties under dusty rugs Chx2 Mirror my depression that traps me in gloom It feels that I'm shielded by the strength of our vitality Wrapped up in your clever play on words that drives away doom that leads us to our tomb Your smile, though I don't see it, I feel it uplifting my spirits that were dampened by misery... I'm closer to the finish line, I can feel it just fine Cure me from my disease of envy that's as bittersweet as red wine Determined to overcome this for you alone...my brave love of mine
