The You that No One Else See’s

It's easy for us to not think when the day is in motion

When others are around that love us dearly.

I don't worry about you

You don't worry about me

As soon as our mind is able to relax;

We can't enjoy it-

Are ya eating?

Drinking water?

Have you paid the rent?

Baby I know-

You’re self-sufficient,

Hustler day in and day out

I want to see you happy

I want to see you smile

I'm crazy as fuck

But damnit if I don't love you more than life itself

Our futures aren't set in stone,

Yet, I won’t force your hand.

When everything tells me I should run,

I gravitate closer.

Cosmic explosions happened in my soul the day you asked me to be your wifey

For once I didn't feel alone,

Someone was on my side,

Hell or high water.

And the day you said you’d finally had enough ...

Damn

The day you said you didn't love me anymore,

With tears staining our cheeks-

Heaven's gates and the gates of a predestined hell became one.

This tragedy made any movie look like a comedy.

No one can prepare you for the pain

Most people don't care enough

And the ones that do are too jaded or focused on their lives

And everyone in between sticks to the cliches that drive us mad

no one understands us as we do

No one's got us,

Like we do

I wanna hear your voice every day for the rest of my life,

I’ll be your biggest fan;

Even if you don’t make me your wife.

I see the side of you-

The side you keep locked away,

A side so rare; you don’t recognize it yourself.

Past all of the sadness and all of the anger,

Caused by the ones you loved most…

There’s a man…

With a heart bigger than our universe;

Filled with compassion, humility and integrity.

When you strip everything else away…

You get a gem so rare;

Only striving to make everyone else happy with his heavenly music.

I don’t regret anything about you.

I would do it all over again.

Just to see your contagious smile dancing along

With your deep baby blue eyes

Wait, do I sound selfish?

Oh well, ya gotta realize-

I wouldn’t ask you to defy your beliefs or desires

Even when we’re at each other’s throats, I’m still in your corner.

If you can’t see me,

Just look deeper into your soul.

For, this is where I’ll stay-

On thru our infinite reincarnated worlds.

The paths you’ve opened me up to;

Are priceless in any currency.

You’ve changed me for the better…

I’m not a judgmental person anymore.

I see my genuine worth.

Somehow we've both lost our ways.

Our priorities became everything else but us.
