Just Listen

No sounds no instrumental Just my breathing and my beating heart forgive me but I'm trying to be sentimental I just don't know where to start how does one get in your heart? I'm searching for diamonds not the broken parts Your beautiful and My emotions are high and I don't know what I'm getting into but do we really need a reason why when our heart sees potential I think I'm definitely worth getting into I'm pouring out my heart just using a paper and a pencil my two favorite utensils I wanted to avoid spilling my heart like a cold coffee being knocked over Love has knocked me down and I'm still slouching over I want you near me because it feels as natural as having Halloween candy on October 31. I bet you could rip through this plastic rap and find the real me using just your teeth and I know you could savor me like cake down underneath but all sexual stuff aside I really just want you to hear me. Feel me. The real me. No distractions. I only hope for a positive reaction. Your lips on mines intertwined Just listen to my body and the beating of my heart than maybe you'll know where to start.
