across a crowded room

ACROSS A CROWDED ROOM

ACROSS A CROWDED ROOM TIME STOOD STILL

UNABLE TO MOVE, EYES FIXED FOCUSED ON YOU

A MOMENT CAPTURED FRAMED IN TIME

TRULY MAJESTIC SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL, SUBLIME

THROUGH A SEA OF PEOPLE AND WALL OF SOUND

MOVING SWIFTLY FEET DON’T TOUCH THE GROUND

APPROACHING YOUR SIDE, NERVOUS TONGUE TIED

ACHING SO MUCH TO SHARE THESE FEELINGS INSIDE

STUTTER AND STUMBLE FEELING LIKE SUCH A FOOL

PLANNED IN MY HEAD HOW I WOULD BE SWARTH AND COOL

BEST LAID PLANS FIRMLY KICKED OUT THE DOOR

DIGNITY AND PRIDE LYING IN SHAME UPON THE FLOOR

IN DREAMS THIS IS THE MOMENT SHE LAUGHS & YOU’RE IN WITH A CHANCE

BUT IN REALITY YOU KNOW THERE WILL BE NO ROMANCE

WALKING AWAY WITH TAIL BETWEEN LEGS CURSING YOUR LUCK

BLAMING YOURSELF AND REPEATING THE WORD THAT RHYMES WITH TRUCK

LIKE A BIKE AFTER YOU FALL GET STRAIGHT BACK ON

AND LICK YOUR WOUNDS UNTIL HEALED AND GONE

HAVE FAITH AND BELIEF THAT YOUR LUCK WILL CHANGE

MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN NO MATTER HOW UNBELEIVABLE OR STRANGE

GETTING IT RIGHT TAKES TIME AND PLENTY OF EFFORT AND WORK

LADIES WANT TO BE ROMANCED BY A GENTLEMAN AND NOT A JERK

SOMETIMES WHEN YOU LOOK YOU CAN’T SEE THE WOOD FOR THE TREES

THOUGH EVEN TAKING IT SLOWLY WON’T ALWAYS MAKE IT A BREEZE

WHEN THE MOMENT ARRIVES IT’S HARD TO HOLD BACK OR EVEN DISGUISE

THE EMOTIONS YOUR FEELING REFLECTED IN YOUR GAZING EYES

BUT LOVE IS MUCH MORE THAN PASSION, COMMITTNENT LOWS AND HIGHS

IT’S ABOUT TRUTH, FAITHFULLNESS, PATIENCE & HONESTY WITHOUT THE LIES
