Ineptus Amor
The smile you wore made you so fashionably late
Jittery cups of fate waiting for your flair to sate
Waiting for our fan mail to earn us a date
Made all the sparking nerves worth the wait
Didn’t know whether to hug or to wave
Forgot about my sweaty palms and petty aches
Trying so hard with heavy ankles to dodge reality’s shake
It has the habit of slapping me awake
Throwing me down and holding me tight
But your voice made it all alright
My lips begged to cling to you with all their might
Giddy giggles from the fear of this type of height
I’m glad you held my hand to purge the blight
But your kisses were a different kind of light
Why did you fit in my arms just right?
You must love igniting the jigsaw’s green respite
Lord knows you wipped many tears that night
While I lay there concealing mine
Waiting for my curtain call’s time
Waiting for the Autumn leaves to be my thyme
They knew deep down, that even if they tumbled and drowned
Built you a shrine, worshipped you as those who shine
Sung you songs, trembling hands from thumping gongs
Toiling under the sun for the rains to fall
They knew before the dew ran from the lawn
I’d be dancing alone
Yet even so they lost all control when they saw you
Felt all the charm the phone poured through
A bewitching sweetness that stole Gretel too
A slipping sickness that made you my muse
Even as you skipped in a dark forest with a little red hood
The flashing moment you grinned at me,all was good
And all i had to do was play the fool, pick the violin and strum the tune
But instead I chose to croon;I love you
