{ SOMETIMES THANGS...}


{ SOMETIMES THANGS...}
THE MUSIC THIS PIECE WAS WRITTEN TO...

You came into my life a beautiful apparition and I just knew... I knew, I just had to have you.
My heart almost exploded in the cavity of my chest and my mind heated to 10,000 degrees and I knew... I just fucking knew, I needed you.
I became an empty shell waiting to be filled.
The bricks and concrete echoed back my feelings each time I took a footstep, such a hollow sound as I wandering walked for you.
My life, my life and I would do these things for you, clouds racing across the sky as the mighty wind blew.
Sky of blue as filtered by the atmosphere, as filtered by my soul.
So much promise and potential and I knew,.. Yes I knew that I would have you.
You came into my life and I felt you each time you walked by and I caught a whiff of you, wished I could smell your hair, scratch your scalp.
Days turning into nights where I all alone would play you over and over in my mind, again and again... Slow motion.
The way that your dress hugged your hips, the way the breeze caught the fabric as it flowed from your body and traced the wind.
Your voice, so melodic as it played mixed in my psyche.
You came into my life and I wanted to say these things but circumstances never seemed right and I, I just looked at you.
The way you looked when you bit your lips, the way you frowned a little bit when things just didn't seem right.
My subconscious summoning you when I asleep would lay, I wonder if I ever called your name.
Drifting in the clouds of marijuana smoke, such an amazing configuration.
I high on the very thoughts of you as I fall into haze.
Cough, cough and Whew!
If ever... If ever...
I would say these things to you.
