Thoughts that Won't Get Out

Sometimes, I’m not sure what goes through my heart and head

Or why I wake up refreshed after sleeping in your bed.

Maybe it’s the breathtaking girl stealing the air from inside my chest.

Or it’s the angel fluttering through my head.. uh I forgot the rest.

You may call me a thousand things and try to label this feeling too,

But my heart is perfectly content without labeling you.

See, for the longest time I was unnerved and lost,

Reaching in the dark for a word long since tossed.

Well, I hate to say it, but it has not been found

Neither has my mouth been able to make the sound.

See, an unmasked robber stole it from me

Along with my heart and began to flee.

But, one day I hope to catch to catch her by the hand

And utter that word that, in my head, is quite grand.

Her heart will soar farther than she could have thought

A feeling that’s a million times better than something bought.

I’m afraid I must end this here,

But not all is lost, it could appear.

Give it time and the skittish word may come out

And I’ll say it as soon as I can without a doubt.

For you’re the one I love and my heart will keep on pouring

The rawest emotion I’ve ever felt that leaves me here, soaring.
