Girl, I'M Wishing

She's writing again
God, how I love her pen
That hand can make a man tremble
Her script today about the sea
So jealous, wishing it were me

Just seeing her name
And I'm falling to pieces
I can't shake the feeling 
Or stop myself from reeling
Captivated by her heart

Paradise abides within her soul
All of her, an unrelenting goal
She's got words that make me fly
Again today, time stood still
Can love's belief make it all real

Just seeing her name
And I'm falling to pieces
I can't shake the feeling 
Or stop myself from reeling
Captivated by her heart

I know it sounds crazy to say
Whispering her lines, I think today
These words written about the sea
I'm dreaming of how it could be
If this girl's really thinking about me

Girl, I'm wishing...
Wishing you're thinking about me

Girl, I'm wishing...
Wishing for a you and me!

~Lyric Man

Note: I wanted to write a song about that wishing feeling. Those things going on inside so many of us. Things we can't or won't ever say out loud. Because it's just fantasy, right? Or could there actually be more... What if this girl is thinking about me while I thinking about her?!?!

So just for fun, if you think this write is really about you.. you just might be right!! The tension of the unknown is intoxicating.. so drink up my friends!

Poetry is just a great way to express emotions especially the concealed ones. And this one's a beautiful example. Nicely done!

It is nice to start the day with this heart cheering write! That's true readers whatever age and state of heart identify with these beautiful noble human feelings and thoughts! We never blame the heart to fall, but the mind will be responsible for it all! I enjoyed reading your Lyric, Lyric Man! Thank you for sharing. Stay safe.

She sounds so dreamy and romantic. I am sure she is thinking of you, and her heart is smiling, after feeling your words. I like the way your thoughts play. :) This is beautiful. ~ Maia

Now Andrea, I'm just writing about feelings and want to do it in a way where anyone can see themselves in the song. You won't find a write about the sea that teased me.. I took a liberty there to hide my true love.. JK. By the way, never ever count yourself out of inspiring a romantic pen. You've got everything you need and more!

Only an Angel would have such exclusive intel :). When you're sitting for the best show in the universe it's good to be in the front row. I see a few familiar pens up here with me girl!

Nope.. my true love isn't in the Soup. That would be crazy right? Or would it... Its the weekend. A time when belief and romance most often wed. So have a drink on me and toast to possibilities :)

Vijay, you've perfectly captured the essence of what I was chasing with my pen. Personally, I'm still completely taken by my incredible wife.. but my pen reminds me often that he's still free ;)
