If We Could
If we could
Soft voices
strong demeanor
too many choices
is it worth bleedin’ until forever
afraid of commitin’ misdemeanors
if we could I would but we can’t
be happy to turn reality into fantasy
Enchant…
if I went I couldn’t come back
guilty consciences speak loudly
not worth losin’ my sanity
cause sanity loves me and only me
as I sit here and daydream…
we sit under beautiful shady trees
with a slight breeze…
picnicking to the sound of hmmm…
Miss Italy Tha Poetress singing
wonderin’ what you’re thinkin’
I look you in the eyes
and I’m completely mesmerized
there’s somethin’ about this fly boy
that keeps me hypnotized
I lean in to kiss you
and then I realize…
that I’m blinded by lust
that we can’t… even if I must
that I ….am not the only one
my sanity taps me on the shoulder
and wakes me up from daydreaming
the reason for fantasy being fantasy…
is so that I could still be me loving my sanity
and living reality like I should endlessly
