This Worries Me
You don't know your smile makes my heart run a mile
When you look at me the past runs like the river Nile
You don't know that your voice ,your eyes and your touch make me envy the Saudi wind and sun
They get to touch your skin everyday
the wind carries your voice to wherever it goes
And the sun glares at your eyes like it's showing off
If Time had the reverse gear
I would go back to when I didn't know you and all was clear
Back to when ma body missed yours not
To a day i knew not, the pleasure of tasting your unuttered words
I would go back to a day i didn't know the pain of missing you
I didn't want to care but now I do
Your existence now at my heart it stares
My heart is spreading the rumor
That im falling for you, i don't want to believe it
And I don't want you to know
I don't like the way ma heart gives in to this foreign feeling
This all worries me
how incomplete ma days feel when in ma ears your voice visits not
It worries me how I miss you
it drags me to depression the fact that I like you even more as days go by
I don't like it a bit that you make me happy, it scares me.
