Open Up

Open Up

A Poem by Thando
"

It's filled with emotions of grief and loneliness but has a good ending to it, expressing how the speaker ends up feeling.

"

You claim to love me, but you don't show it

You claim to understand me yet you find my actions as ropes that tangle you into a bundle of confusion

I guess what I'm trying to is...

The type of love that you're giving me isn't the type of love I know I need

So let me be your tour guide and take you on a journey of words of wisdom

 

When I say love I mean the passionate romance

The pointless fights

And those moments that you just want to capture, hold and live in

Till the ends of time

Like a broken time machine

 

When I say trust

I speak of the adrenaline rush that flows from head to toe in each and every single vein

I speak of that moment when you tell yourself I'm leaping out

Into the open sky

And I hope that it catches me

I hope the sky is my bed

To sleep and dream

When reality fails

 

So I want you to be there

I want you to be that mirror that steals a gaze at me

Each day

 

I want you to be my cub and I'll be your ball of wool

And we'll just play

I'll tangle you with my thoughts, emotions and devotions

I'll hold you close like a warm raincoat in a stormy day

Be my intangible remote control

With thoughts and emotions but control me like Mother nature does with the Sky

Cause if I lose you, I lose my sanity, my breath and I just die

Be that dark chocolate melanin on my skin

I want to feel it so much that I know it's within

Let my infectious passion grow on you like a disease

But let it do so with a flow and ease

So take my hand and let us walk on this journey with Fate

 

The future stops not because of the present

So come and enjoy the ride before it's too late

 

Thump, thump, thump

My heart goes as it knocks on yours

Whether you'll let me in

Nobody knows
