First Step

Some days I distance myself even the door seems like a mile away,

the bikes are unlocked, the shoes are dirty and all I could think of

is "I'll just catch the last bus"

I know it sounds selfish but I think of you every night 

but I can't help and fight the feeling I am the only one fighting this

I should be the one making the move,

I am always afraid but really I toss the discouragement 

and become encouraged you're the presence I want in my life

The funny feelings of you and I together in this world, I can't relate it. 

You know what I could though?

Your quip, your quirk and your quick-witted mind that turns me on.

What else?

Your smile, your eyes, and your angry-at-the-world-stance for their stupidity

that I love.  

Everyone is drinking Cool-Aid, 

but you know what I'm drinking...Tang because 

I brought it back the other day and I know it tastes better.

I don't know what those guys are saying but I can assure you mine tastes better.

I don't feign the love, I just want you to know that I do have feelings awkward 

as they come, 

I come to you with my greatest intentions that you and I are meant to be.

I don't know what together and forever is meant for when we live everyday 

to take the chances of knowing that even if tomorrow doesn't come 

at best and worst we came loving each other every moment.

Then I wake up and you wake up sleeping in this bed and I just don't want to 

leave but you do.

I will be back and you know it.

showing the uncertainty and constantly changing balance of power in love-how you don't want to go but you do-yet both know you are coming back....sad and sweet and even sort of funny re the Tang ha
