I have to be honest.
There was a time when I wondered what would become of you
Call it a sign but it’s harder to see your point of view
Wanted to know how somebody could be so cold
A woman who pays no mind sayin’ friendship is gettin’ old
Elder abuse to social interactions
And even without excuses it’s harder to see the usage
Of minutes I spent on textin’ you, mind you the reason
I’m doin’ it cause I want to while thinkin’ that I was testin’ you
But ultimately I started to know your character
Havin’ respect without knowin’ what to expect
Independence rooted in spirit, harder to scrape the fibre
Hopin’ not to admit that you’re beautiful and admired
The conversations we’re havin’, I’m lookin’ forward to them
I’m always checkin’ on you, I wonder why
But I’m guessin’ you think I’m smitten too, you might be onto somethin’
Amazin’ features, I’m thinkin’ up quite a song from nothin’
Beautiful name and I always stop to admire it
Guard your attention from lesser men who desire it
I need to know my place, happy to read what you type
Nobody’s type, yet expression of envy on my face
Force to be reckoned with, aimin’ for that perfection
And I’m takin’ a second displayin’ my full affection
By writin’ this little lyrical letter, I’m feelin’ better now
I’ve made you curious, startin’ to feel the pressure now
A livin’ Princess in love with god’s creatures
And compared to many you suffer from odd features
But not to me cause I’m lookin’ past all the layers
Messagin’ late at night and we’re callin’ each other later
I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way
A great companion cause friendship is for another day
I’m not the type to disappear if there’s no interest
Happy to tell you – I promise that I am here to stay.
Sincerely,
Cy.
I started readin’ this, ‘n had to stop to admire the signature style that I know & love.. ?
Then, I went back ‘n re-read it. Cause I didn’t wanna miss the beautiful message behind this piece.
Another gem.. with that added somethin’.
Haha well thanks a lot, my friend – much appreciated!
I’m working on a couple of pieces, one of which you know of, and the other is a bit more out there. All of this is to stretch my range a bit and see if the landing sticks. Time will tell 🙂 Appreciate you, brother!
two things: I’m so incredibly fascinated by this piece, but also by the fact that you’re working on a FEW more pieces, which is awesome.. what can I say? this is the Cy-poetry that can always be expected but never predicted.. you always bring something new in your usual style, & I guess that’s something only the greatest masters can pull off 🙂 this is definitely getting into my top 5… magnificent! 🙂
Your top 5? YOUR top 5?!? How could I possibly do better than that lol Your words continue to encourage, my friend – thank you so very much for checking this piece out 🙂
You just keep on surprising me. Love the way this poem was written like a letter, and to start it off with “I have to be honest”, that there, is an attention grabber. Very smart of you to pull the reader in. Great job!
Thank you kindly for your continued support, bro! I’m trying to get things sorted out but once they’re done, I’ll be sure to share what I’ve come up with! Appreciate you!
I was reading and then the rythm got me, there’s music of the finest kind in these otherwise wonderfully written piece. I love it
I’m so glad you were able to pick it up 🙂
Much appreciated, my friend!
??????????
Thanks, brother!
