he's not going to tell you
what you want to hear
that your eyes
are a chocolate river
that flows sweetness
to his heart
that your hair
is a growing madness
that his fingers
can't help but touch
that your face
defied any darkness
in its sunny disposition
that your song
is the only harmony
that calms his indecision
no, he's not going to tell you
what you want to hear
but when you fear
he'll be there
not saying anything
but calmly waiting
by
(sigh)
"that your hair

me, too
