Left Handed Chemistry and An Empty Magic Lamp

you are on my mind yet so far away
left handed chemistry never felt so good
if only mutual feelings could be reached
images of bumping into each other at a beach access stays firm and stubborn in my mind
something about you....always been something about you....
though your color is different from mine, all i see is the natural beauty of your vibe
we cannot be anymore different
we cannot be anymore distant
yet when we connect, it is like time is a stop sign painted green
just to see you again....i do not think i will have any control over my libido, my lips, or my tongue
of course you only see me as a special and precious friend, and i would never disrespect you and try to go beyond back
if you reciprocated the direction my mind is taking right now twenty some odd years ago, perhaps this poem would be written a totally different way
you are so close in my mind yet your heart is in too far away from me today to even attempt a play
