i was findin' my way when you showed up that day, when i was alone on the bus surrounded by people , sufficating in a room full of air.
i was findin' a lonely path to nowhere and i was findin that there was nobody lookin at me and that i could just slip away if i wanted to. and then i saw you , and you looked just as scared as i did and when i was realizing what i was thinking, you were sitting down next to me giving me that look of "do you mind?...every where else is taken" and all i could do was smile, and when i was realizing that you were on the same lonely path as me i suddenly SAW you next to me i processed that there was someone with me and all i could feel was happiness with the world. and when i Saw you there, you looked at me and Saw me too. we sat there and we saw each other giving into the path that was not so lonely now, i was finding my way to you and myself and all i could think to do was pass you my number on a McDonalds napkin, and you gave a look of shock like no one else would ever do it. but i would 'cause i saw you for who you really were and i knew that this was love. for the duration of the ride we said nothing just as it had been for the first part of the trip downtown..the entire time was silent between the two of us...but we both knew...we both knew...both knew...knew. WE. KNEW. and we were taking a longer route to the final destinies of ourselves as we slipped away from depressing parts....away from the sadness. I was finding some place i wanted all along, a place where i belong. i saw the others on the bus and they were beige in my eyes, but you glowed and i think i did too but i don't know because then i wasn't seeing through your eyes. I was feelin for a latch that would let me outof the room of the dark times and into the sunlight that gave me a reason to hide in the first place but now i don't care becasue you are there and i know that i will be here forever unless you tell me to let go, but i would do most anything to make you happy and i would go to the nonexistant ends of the world, as far as the east is from the west, i would travel in search of a flower that could show you what i feel for you. All the wonderful beings on this blue grey green ball that we call home would never match the magnificance that i see when you are here. |
