One Hundred Fifty

65 - Her Spotlight

Oh, how I knew the first time I laid my eyes on you

That in my collections, you're the one I cannot touch

You're the red paint I did not dodge

Now I'm soaked in the crimson blood of your embrace

But behold, grudge is not in my list not even atleast

But still, darling, must you be this endearing?

The pearls lying on my couch now landed on my ears

The pink powder meant for my cake is patted on my cheeks

The strawberries I picked are crashing against my lips

And lately I've been insecure with how my body goes with my hips

Would you like me, would you love me, would you?

Would you?

As in this batting eyelashes, it's meant to catch some gaze of yours

But during the soiree

The music, the dance, evident pain in my eyes

As in the distance, I saw my stance in your feet

She's a stranger in your eyes, each other never greet

But she's the pearl in your sight

The one who can take away your might

One smile that sweeps you away

And suddenly, you are a reflection of me

But more in depth, connected and intact

You might be five feet apart

But her movement and your laugh

reaches each other and is closing the gap

The light I saw in you, reflected on her

I knew I'm someone in the dark

incapable of giving back

the light that shines in you,

Perfectly suits her too

And an attempt to reach you, is finding a sky in the land

Therefore, please hold his hand

You have now his spotlight

Then proceed to leave me and my lips that I bite
