Cave In

Perhaps the way the universe planned it to be She discovered me randomly Crossing her path, overdosed on reality N now I’m stumbling over fantasies Of her butterscotch skin n cognac eyes Stealing my sobriety when she showed me that smile While I’m on this mind trip Riding on my brakes cos I know I might accelerate Rush into tomorrow while barely stepping out of yesterday I kno it’s best to make the most of the present In unwrapping her identity, I got so close to heaven I had to check my pulse for a second How we had so much in common Our conversations were poetry, rhyming Lines that I tightroped, tryin not to fall… between Not cos my chances of gettin caught were weak But, after all, her existence was hard to believe I’ve seen many angels but they never bothered wit me Never gave me that slow dance I wildly craved So as our bodies embraced n melodically swayed In n out of my imagination I hope she didn’t witness my erotic inclinations Cos I was thinkin If forever only lasted the rest of the night That I got the chance to go deep, so deep I touched her next life Cos she’s TOO perfect, prolly a ruse The universe is Pulling on me N I’m choosing to cave in Cos never have I seen Such a beautiful hallucination KG
