Masterfully Anxious Reeling Youth

To the run-on agony of really caring about someone new

and ill take special requests on the busiest nights too

an invitation to the sure thing confidence kills you and me dance

a hot july star of sorts scorching uncertainty burn nova burn

plans making plans there are so many i have all these ideas

crash collision wrecking course in patience i'm passing it's painful it stings

walking across your backyard the grass feels too natural it's good it's home

i'll wake up with the morning lights and fiery ball put them to sleep let it repeat

resolution for the new year more you for lent this time there's no give up

a pretty wise person said passionate persistence paves perfect paths would you listen to 
that

writing down miniscule notes on miniscule paper miniscule memory just please say you 
will stay

heaven scent on earth an angel sent back down on earth you smell amazing

butterfly colony infested stomach the waiting it has this winged effect

create a man out of a boy the transformation happened overnight we touched mouths i 
remember my hands on your hips

let yourself be here for this reason flex your destroy me muscles white flag relax 
surrender to your response

to this point surprise surprise thick cerebral traffic we never saw it coming

unique style perfect taste sleep on my chest fireworks explosion princess

my message here could not be anymore direct connection is obvious i want you as 
foundation to my life house

closer to me like i accidentally brushed you like we intertwined like i want to be a 
scale all of your body weight on top of me

so say yes we'll slow dance ill watch your toes hand print on the back small

i'm waiting, I'll wait, I'll wait, i'm waiting, i'm waiting, I'll wait, I'll wait

the answer that exits your lips holding hands with your exhale breath is more than 
words, a dream in the flesh

early and lost at the thought of losing you something different about us good and 
legendary, rhythmic and scientific, essential and smart
