Tell Me Why

Tell Me Why 

Could you tell me why
You stay on my mind 
Like all the time…
I can’t shake you like that
You stay close to my heart
And you can see cause its fact
I miss your body next to mine
I need your love…
Could you just come back
And you know it’s real 
Especially since I can’t stay mad
And when you don’t pick up
I’m just sad and side-tracked…
So when you push contact
You hit me with the drunk text
And I can’t wait til’ you walk through that door
Cause’ I know I got next…
But when you walk in
I’m speechless with butterflies
Love in my eyes…yea the whole nine
So you’re wondering
 what “the whole nine” means to me

I just look at you and smile…
And simply, in depth, reply…
One is the love between the two of us
Two is who I am, especially when I’m with you
Three is for every time I think of you with every breath in me
Four is for every time you leave me wanting more
Five is for the inspiration that your beautiful soul fills me with making me feel alive
Six is for the way you hold me at night…its always an elegant remix
Seven is the way you look me in the eyes… I feel like I’m flying through heaven
Eight is for the ways you have with me…it’s impossible to escape
Nine if for what the future holds for us, so intensely divine
Therefore it’s for us to define…
Definition come with time and time is patient
So I’ll continue to love until love loves me 
And embraces these relations
With a better understanding
