Night of Nerves

Folder: 
July 2010

 

May have seemed busy playing with dixie cups, but it was you who caught my eye,
the second I saw you in your lobby, I knew nerves would keep me from even trying,
you looked so beautiniquecialexy, not even close to being fluffy,
never have I felt so underdressed, never have i felt more scruffy.
 
I remembered the slide, and the single question that led to us connecting,
instead of talking to you, our memories I started collecting,
I remembered the umbrella, and how the question led to attempts in thirds,
now like you I must figure out how to say the same thing, without saying the same words.
 
I don't want another pretty face, feel like there is a side I have yet to see,
I know you write some poetry, and on some songs we will agree,
yet my nerves got the best of me, and I didn't even bother to say a single word,
plus why would a beauty like you, ever want to talk to a beast, that is just absurd.
