My thoughts are hazy
I'm feelin' lazy
They say I'm goin' crazy
Well, maybe they're right
cuz I don't put up a fight
when they say it to my face
my mind is in space when they talk to me
I send out lots of signals
but the signals get crossed
By the time you get the message
the meaning is lost
Get closer...go away
Hold me...let me go
I don't wanna see you
Yet I can't see enough of you
My mind is in space
when they talk to me
there's a delayed reaction
my mind does not function
I look but don't see
I listen but don't hear
I talk but don't say much
I feel but do not touch
I'm logical but it doesn't make sense
Hiding emotion is the ultimate defense
I don't wanna be a fool
though I don't have pride
Love has no rules
so I take it in stride
I think about you all the time
Penny for your thoughts? Mine are worth at least a dime...
When you get close I back away
I need my space to your dismay
It's not that I don't like you
I'm not afraid you won't like me
I think I like you too much
That's my main anxiety
I want you and need you
yet I back away
I approach you not knowing what to say
I'd like to get to know you
and see you some more
But I guess I should prepare you
You don't know what you're in for
Lots of hang-ups and doubts
and some uncertain fear
that you could do without
so I won't let you come near
I'm with you in spirit
although it doesn't show
you probably don't wanna hear it
but I need to let you know
That's so sad. You're such a powerful writer though,keep at it!
Good poem, I like the idea of the crossed signals.
it is good to be a kinetic spirit with another but sometimes you simply need to thell them your true feelings and not be afraid of reaction
