Newness of you

take me back to those times
when my soul was happy
to dance in your eyes'
those crazy moonlit nights
chasing eachother on the beach
when my soul was happily distracted
by your awakening
seeing you grow
was addictive
watching you laugh
was liberating
I never quite learned
to laugh so deep and so loud
it was so awesome to watch
I managed to grin though
sadness lived in me
years of self sufficiency
took its toll
and to watch such
a crowded flower bloom
left me looking less on the horizon
for a love that was calling
from a higher place
such a beautiful time
and passion was burning
picnics at midnight
love by firelight
the first time,
the last time
all beautiful
and something wonderful
so beautiful,
I thought it was you
calling on the horizon
in a whisper in my ear
but i must have been confused
by the newness of you
because the ancientness
of them found me in a weak moment
and jumped out of a lovesong
so powerful,
accompanied by symphony of angels
that blew Hall and Oats
out of the water,
and the only thing
I vaguely remember
was the Kiss song you sung to me
Forever, with your lighter lit in the dark
and its those moments I guess,
that I struggle with;
holding on or lettng go
seeing through the haze.. you're
so unhappy now and
I cant help feeling
Im the one to blame.
I never would hurt you
I wish you could say the same.
the pain of loss
the selfish heart you possess
drove me to kill my soul.
but still I believed in us
trying to right a wrong
silly I know,
I should have walked away
but you were still oh so new
and I caouldnt walk away
for if I did or ever do
I might just miss the chance
to raise that newness
reflected in your eyes
from my own eyes
to feel brand new...
