Something In the Way
It was something in the way you looked at me.
No, not just any look..
A look of complete empathy.
I knew you understood me,
even with words unsaid,
you still knew.
It's something in the way you make me forget..
Forget about the harsh, cold, tasteless world that surrounds us.
Its something in the way you make me feel.
You're like a drug,
you numb me.
For a few quick moments I can put faith back into humanity,
truly believing that there is a benevolent society out there waiting for me,
but it's something in the way you walk away that makes the dream pass.
It's the unknowing of your intentions that keeps me afraid,
but it's the feeling of wholeness you present me with that reassures me,
that you're the real thing.
I know this is just the beginning,
but it's something in the way you've already touched my heart that let's me know I still have one..
That it's still beating,
and that it will be easy to repair.
All I need is your presence because there's something in the way you are that makes me feel complete.
You're everything I've been waiting for.
