So you like me ?
So you like me ?
There came a day that you asked me if I liked you . And I couldn’t find it in me to answer. I mean what was it that I’m feeling ? I was hoping that’s something time will tell
U see a woman like me finds it hard to feel . After awhile the cold heart feeling becomes an easier pill. Time after time of swallowing its becoming easier to deal
A dissociation put in place to keep me from failure afraid that if I feel something it’s more likely to fall apart
I could try to explain but Id rather not
see while I was sorting that part u had taken notice of me
I watched how you spoke when you expressed, I saw how you moved with handling business, I saw how u took life in and accepted the lessons. I was seeing your observations after making decisions. After a few things realization was id taken notice of you too
And then I saw how you looked at me and I started to think … isn’t this easy ?
So you asked me , do I like you . It’s kind of becoming an easier answer, like asking if the sky is blue . Or if the grass is green . I’d ask you if the sun was hot and when u answered id say wasn’t that easy ? So when u asked me again id ask if you knew your first name . And when u answered id say see wasn’t that easy ? Id express that love is a dangerous game and it’s all in the way you play
But when u first asked me do I like you ? I couldn’t find it in me to answer. So now I’d tell you if u ask me again I’d know what to say
Id look at u and ask if you could tell night from day . And when u answered I’d reply with “wasn’t that easy “
And now I ask , do you like me ..
