When I First Saw

Folder: 
Romanticism

when i first saw your face

reflected in your words

in your happiness, in your hurt

in time, in death and in birth



i've seen it new every conversation

constantly becoming clearer

with new features

and such int'rest from here



when i first saw your face

i didn't know who you were

in the blurriness, in ruins

noose tied, through voids your hand reached and chanced



i've seen it new every conversation

constantly becoming clearer

with new features

and a reach back from here



when i first thought to hold

i could just tell sincerity

though the past did wrong, to my grasp

at times, the shake and the glass



i saw

before long

like i saw before

like i saw once

before long before



everything can seem so old

talking to someone "new"

but everything gets a fresh chance

and it hasn't rotted with you



it's dawning dew every conversation

constantly becoming clearer

with new features

and no complaints from here



no complaints from here



if i lost grip

if i slipped off the wheel

i'd watch you steer

but you know....i'd never let go.



when i first saw your face

when i first saw your face

when i first saw your face

reflected in your words,

my true friend
