I wonder how many unsuspected,
blank expressions
I have filled;
in the background of a memory
held dear to a stranger
that I never gave my assent to.
A stranger alone I have traveled in glee
The nerves expand, plunder me throughout
Oh why, oh why do I sit here alone?
What the future holds, will my life lead to more?
Butterflies captured, hands shake
Confidence is key,ย
I still dont know what it was when I fiirst saw you
You were different from the other guys I seen before
I was wondering where you been all my life
I need to prepare.
I have to get ready.
I have got to get the part perfect.ย
I am here.
I am alone.
I am nervousย
I should not be nervous.
I have to calm down.
I know I can do this.
Is it wrong
that i want to observe
everything you do?
just simply watch you,
and breath in every quirk
and restlessness of your being
sometimes you absent mindedly jitter your leg
I like to think i know you
and that you know every dark corner of my being.
how much is exchanged
when gazes collide?
Helloย
Umm......ย
I apologize if I'm a botherย
I usually don't do this because I'm....ย
Well I get nervousย
But I just wanted to tell you that you are gorgeousย
Butterflies
Fluttering in my stomach
or
Crocodiles
Gnawing at my innards
I don't know which
But it's somewhere in between
ย
My heart is racing and
I think
I don't know why
my heart is racing
maybe the anticipation
of performing is running naked
through my head
What would they think?
Maybe they wouldn't like it
I-am-not-nervous
Iamnotnervous.
ย
Breathe
ย
I am not nervous.
Really, Iโm not.
ย
I may look a wreck:
tired eyes and hair a mess,
dressed as if
I havenโt done anything
The room is dark.
ย
Thereโs nothing surprising about the void. The silence in my head. Or the drumming in my heart.
