Slow Love

The first time I saw you I didn’t feel a thing Then from a distance voices started to ring Then your face was all my dreams could bring I flew high but I crushed with a broken wing No more flying just a voice your name to sing Hush! That smile like the waters of spring… I barely noticed the first time we spoke But now I know your voice is my smoke I need it everyday even when I am broke Without it my head slows and starts to knock I need to call you to feel that electric shock A smile left on my face “stop it!” I mock I barely noticed the first time I touched your face But now your presence makes my heart race It’s like my mind is no longer in its place The damage you do to me is of high price For your beauty makes me pale like cooked rice The smile you have kills me for it’s so nice If one day you ever give me a chance I won’t dare let you go even once You will rest on my chest as we dance I will be that pillow when your tears glance You being the princess I will be that prince Happiness will be defined by our presence When am with you time goes so fast When am with you I am at my best I can look at you forever without rest Hurting you will never be on my list You are not my first but you are surely my last I promise you that you and I will last……..
