Reading... Is Fundamental
If you could read my emotions
You’d probably lose focus
Be honored by my closeness
Honored that I wrote this
If you could hear my whispers
And see my gestures
You’d see how my words could affect her’s
If you could read my offense
You’d see I have no defense
And you have no reasons
To deny your feelings
Cause I go for the long ball
I’m in for the long haul
And I could wait all night just to receive your phone call
So if you’re ready, I’m here
And if you’re not I’ll wait
Just take your time… make sure you’re reading it straight
If you could read my mind,
You’d be reading for an eternity
Thoughts flow so fluently
Conversations about you and me
I hope you like what you read
I hope you love what you see
Prologues and prefaces
Intros and outtakes
Allow you to intake and inhale the essence
And embrace the aroma
And get a feel of my aura
It burns and glows
To light your way
And enlighten your heart
I’m hoping you stay,
To finish the rest
But, I won’t put under any duress
If you like it, you like it
If you don’t, you don’t
But we’ll see…
By the end of tonight
