Deprived of All The Flavor That You Have (Potentiality Pt. 4) -2/18/05

I do not think I’d like you if we talked
I think our interests have so little ground
That’s common to the lives we each have walked
We’d search for ought to say, but naught’d be found.

And this is why I cannot realize
Exactly why it is you hold my mind
And with a smile you captivate my eyes
To leave me feeling like an empty rind

It’s not that you are naught I’ve seen before
It’s not that when you’re gone I cannot rest
It’s not that you are seated at my core
It’s not that others don’t that throne contest.

I do not know just what my heart can see
I think that, rather than in you, it’s me.
