Eyes Wide Open

You may fumble with words;
That’s ok, I fumble with emotions;
You may trip over an idea,
I may fall into your eyes; 
It may not be the right moment, 
but it is the perfect time; 
We may be in opposite directions, 
walking the exact same line; 
You know how it feels living in the nines
Me? I trip in the sixes landing in broken heels;
Making love to the sky, you’re an Eagle;
I’m a broken wing, just trying to fly;
I may fumble with your speed,
you may be blinded by my colors;
That’s ok, I believe in your pace.
You leave me with my eyes wide open.
