Star 67


Sitting here empty

I just want you were here I need you near

Can’t imagine myself with anyone else

You see… you and me are unique

Let’s shine together because we’re both stars

When I’m not with you I feel these bars over my aching heart

Look, Listen to the sound of my beating heart

My expressions can’t fully articulate the depth of my care

See… you have a way with words that keeps me here

But I don’t know how much more I can bear

They say love is patient and it is kind

But I can’t get us being together off my mind

Maybe it’s that big smile

Or maybe that big head

Filled with knowledge

Your skill, finesse, is what takes my breath

Smoother than Sade’s operator

Crisper than a La Croix

You’re my favorite

I pick you

I never been able to express these feelings because I get so nervous when I’m around you

Sweaty palms

Nervous smile

Is what you make me do

Keep this going you’re going to make me love you

And 100% sure you’re going to love me too

The rawest you’ve ever touched

The realest you’ll ever meet

Heart bigger than Earth itself

I’m all you could ever want and need

I know we’re waiting for the perfect time to be in each other’s lives

Yes I’m willing to wait a little longer

Because we’re meant to be

Don’t wanna rush the inevitably obvious

I won’t hurt you

I got you

Always will

You say you miss me too

That’s how I know you want and need me too

Come closer and whisper these same lines in my ear.
