I was young when I met her, my dear introversion

Lost in crowded solitude together, soft hands calmed me out the store of speakers, and television

Since then her love sewn, and raised my body like a flag;

my wavering facade of peace

With my mind always losing to a coup against relationships, and love

Her voice would sound my surrender; my numbing ease.

Today, that appliance store is a lot like college, and endless night talks

It is the little parallel universe we wander by moonlight in our needless night walks

When the world plays a deafening playlist,

send me songs of your crazy laughs, and silent tears

When the world orchestrates distracting movies,

let’s take off our skins, and clothes to see the other’s naked soul and dreams

When they tell us how to live life, hold me tighter ’til we work things out

In a world where everything is with a price, you gave me love you never knew about.

But losing people has been a debacle between challenge, or fate

Uncertain if I lost you or you lost me, my lungs resign to silence either way

Because I never had the right words to say, no matter how much I stress

I never had the anchors to make you stay, So I just wish you all the best.

Truth be told, I just want to be found

To realize my introversion toyed my around

That at the appliance store you really were looking for me

That these anxious thoughts had fooled me

So now I know better, clinging tighter,

Make these few souls in my life… Happier.
