The Early Works

For all the contact, we fell in over months
Yet when we met I was the one you didn’t want
Couldn’t get more than a few words from you in all conversations
Kissed you 3 times in the whole weekend

You wouldn’t let me in
From friend to lover and back to just friend
Came at the right time but I didn’t want it to end
Been filling gaps since then
I thought you were the one
For all I’ve experienced – you are – but maybe I’m wrong
Just a call away but the distance is long
Every time I call its not feeling on song

I want you so badly but it’s hard to even talk
Can’t reply to your letters yet I crave so much more
Reaching out through tears emotions are carried
I want something more …I want to be married
Calls are fine but my feelings I parry
Though you felt before…will you still have me?
You’re the definition of my ideal woman and I love your all
Maybe I shouldn’t love you, so with this I brawl

Should be over, I guess it’s a long time past
But when I look back feelings are unmasked
Completion of my missing half you are
Somehow you’re still the beat of my heart

On paper we have elements to fulfil what could be
But how could you after everything
Say you don’t know me

The text messages before a lecture and one at lunch
More than friendship grew
Yeah I knew that much

When me met I was gentle and assumed no advantage
Though I tried to make you happy maybe I was too romantic?
I never planned this – to be brought down like the towers
You’re the one I want but instead I’m like mojo
Without Austin Powers

This is a very expressive piece, Adrian. I'm sure this was a painful write, but you penned it wonderfully. I could feel the pain in this piece as if I were there with you. Very well written, sir.
