leaves

Darling let me just say that your cheeks

remind me of precocious roses that grow out of streets,

I always like your effervescence, so much kindness underneath

those diamond shining eyes and those pearly white teeth,

you always get my attention, not to mention

when time passes in class I think of you and lose attention,

some say I may daydream, but it really isn't what it seems,

all the thoughts in my head are thoughts of you and me,

I feel free of stress and free to confess whenever we talk,

But honey, you gotta understand, we're from a different walk,

You're miles away, needless to say,

the thought is troublesome day to day,

I could lose one one way or the other,

I wanna be with you and hope we can be lovers,

You and I've been through some weather and we've always had eachother,

But you and I are far apart and It's hard to stay together,

Maybe it would be better if we just left alone,

But it's so damn hard to just not pick up the phone,

One day I'll answer in a solemn tone,

And you'll ask what's wrong, what's got me distressed,

I'd say to you that I have something to confess,

And that something is that us being apart has just caused me stress,

I love you but we can barely talk and I feel that there's nothing left

I don't get to be with you like some other guy can,

I can't hold you at night and hug you and take a hold of your hand,

Don't worry dear, one day you will find a man,

And he'll be even better, I swear on my life,

But until then just remember, if you're ever missing me,

All you have to do is look to the autumn leaves and see,

They're like us, they always change,

But at heart we're still the same,

And so while I don't want to see you go I know

That one day you'll be happy, without any sorrow.
