She smiles

She Smiles

by James M.

I woke up today…

scrolling through my mind,

telling stories, wandering

from past to present.

I smile, I burn, I joke.

Coffee in my hand…

lines flying in my heart,

looking at your face…

makes me smile.

I’m still in the dream.

Baby, you know…

how much pain you healed in me.

Your smiles, baby…

let me forget the pain.

You are my first song—

baby, with your love…

I left the pain behind.

Coffee sips…

I don’t want to wake,

don’t want to leave this dream.

I want you in my life…

I need you… I need you in my life.

I’m asking you, baby…

do you want to be mine?

Let me fall in love with you…

every day, every day…

when I’m with you.

I think I’ve fallen…

I’m not afraid

to tell you…

that from the first moment…

I was in love with you, baby.

In love with you, baby…

In love with you, baby…

I wake up today…

I want to tell you… I love you.

I fear tomorrow won’t come…

trapped inside this day.

We are happy…

we are happy…

just me and you…

just me and you…
