Sweet & Dark Nothings

11. This Man...

 This man has got my mind racing
Completely outer-spacing!
My thoughts attack me.
Who can that be?
All I can see are your eyes.
Is it such a surprise?
I think you do it on purpose!
Make my mind completely worthless!
Your smile makes me smile.
Every moment with you is worthwhile.
I like you in my space.
It makes my heart race.
I'm such a mental case!
Words fail me in your presence.
I'm so quiet! It makes no sense!
You are so much of what I want
To feel this good, I have forgot.
All I want is to hear that you want me.
To tell me to come near.
To whisper how much you love me
In my ear.
To shout how you adore me
Without any fear.
With you I feel as friends
I can ask for nothing more.
Though I may just be who you are looking for.
Yet on solid ground I attempt to stand.
Until you take me by the hand.
Sometimes you sweep me off the floor,
Then without a word,
Drop me down as I was before.
Confusion keeps me silent in this game.
Are you for real? Or are my fantasies to blame?
Looking for things that aren't really there.
My soft hear is my burden to bare.
Let me know what is real.
Tell me exactly how you feel.
