-My Other Sides-(Part 2)

"My Other Sides"

"The Night Before Last"

The night before last, I dreamt of the day,
when I would wake up one morning at noon;
And I felt you pulling me closer, "I love you," I heard you say,
we were finally together, I hope that happens soon.

I felt your arms wrapped around my waist,
you pulled me closer, and gave me a hug;
My heart suddenly started beating with a furious haste,
all because you held me nice and snug.

I felt you on my lips, as I pressed them against you,
the softness and the warmth enveloped me;
You made me feel good, so very good, if only you knew,
I felt loved, and cared for too, if only you could see.

I felt the warmth of your skin against mine,
the softness of your skin, covering me like a warm blanket;
And your body lying by my side felt so divine,
the flame in my heart had been turned on, you had gotten it lit.

I felt your body in my hands, as I held your hips,
I sat their admiring your great beauty;
I once again had the chance to taste the tenderness of your lips,
and that caused a bad case of the shivers to run through me.

I felt you tense up as I sat there and stared,
at the way your body glowed with such passion;
Your body's movements showed just how much you cared,
and after all that, I thanked God for making me a man.

I felt you on top of me, just lying there,
just hugging and thinking of me;
As I ran my hands through your soft brown hair,
we both knew that's where we wanted to be.

I felt you grab my hand and squeeze,
you looked into my eyes, we just sat there and stared;
You smelt so good, better than a fresh spring breeze,
and best of all, I knew you really cared.

The night before last, I dreamt of the day,
when we went back to sleep the next afternoon;
And I felt you pulling me closer, "I love you," I heard you say,
we were finally together, I hope that happens soon.

"A Letter To You"

"Short Term Cure"

She lies, and says she's in love with me.
She only lies to help hide it from herself;
She really doesn't love me, I've learned to see,
that she's just afraid that she'd never find someone else.

I'll ask her if I'm smothering her,
but she feels guilty and says "but it feels so good" and "but I like it:"
I guess she feels trapped, like a fish on a lure,
beacause I know that she's just acting nice, she doesn't like it one bit.

She'll pretend not to know me If I start acting strange;
She'll turn her head in embarrasment, or just walk away,
trying to get farther from me, out of my range;
She doesn't even care enough to stand firm and just stay.

Her face will turn red, or she'll start to blush;
She'll look all around us to see who's paying attention,
then she'll whisper from the side of her mouth "hush,"
like she doesn't want to be embarrassed in front of other men.

How am I supposed to react? I feel so used, so abused,
She doesn't really need me, I'm just a short term cure;
I've fallen into a trap, damn I'm confused,
She's got me so wrapped, and I've fallen in love with her.

She just has low self esteem, what can she do?
She could date other guys, they's fall head over heels;
She could have this one or that one, or she could even have him,
As perfect as she is, he'd probably even cook her three square meals.

But she doesn't believe, she has no confidence,
she covers it all up with a bunch of lies;
I have tried to help her break free with plenty of compliments,
I just hope that when it sinks in, I won't have to hear any good-byes.

I do want to stay with her forever, all of my life,
it's just that I want her to see every single choice;
I just hope that benieth all of those lies, she still wants to be my wife,
because then I wont feel so guilty about us, I'll finally rejoice.

She lies, and says she's in love with me.
She only lies to me to help hide it from herself;
I want her to understand how great she is, I need her to see,
I want her to choose me, after seeing all of the other stuff on the shelf.

"I Really Do Care"

Those same dark lies that were told to you,
were told to me, and they're just the start,
of the many. There's not just a few,
of these evil little things that are ment to tear us apart.

Some people don't think that I really care,
or that I'm even close to good enough to be your boyfriend;
Hell, maybe the don't like the way I do my hair,
but for some reason they want our relationship to end.

Maybe they're right, and maybe they're wrong. I truthfully don't know,
they might just be jealous, or even pissed;
maybe they're an old romance that won't let go,
because they don't feel like they're being missed.

They don't like me, or they don't like you, so they'll start whispering in you ear,
your smile will fade, and their evil grin will appear;
You'll turn your head, then they'll take the time to sneer,
they want to ruin what we have, what I hold so dear.

I want you to know, I need you to believe me,
none of them are true, look at all we've had;
I care for you, I love you, can't you see,
I can't stand it when you hurt, I feel so bad.

What else can I say, but I hope you'll believe,
that after all the love I've chosen to share,
you'll love me too, and never want to leave,
because I swear to you, I really do care.

They will even say these lies out of fear,
because they are our bestest of best friends that really care;
Or they might have just been out drinking their beer,
once in a while, it might just be one big, stupid, dare.

But I promise that I won't let them bug me, If you will too,
lets just squeeze our hands together tighter;
If we can stop these lies before they land in our heads, before they seep through,
then the burden in our heads will be that much lighter.

These same dark lies that were told to you,
were told to me, and they're just the start,
of the many. There's alot more than a few,
so lets ignore them and stay together forever, never to be apart.
