Reflections of Myself

by chris - Aries

I see a reflection in the distance
it glitters within your eyes
I see me inside of you 
as you whisper simple words
that go straight to my heart.

Pull me out from inside
take a slow ride
no need to hurry
no one gets to come in
inside of these eyes.

Your secrets I have seen
tell me more
like you
I've met no other
and it came as a surprise
I thought my hopes died long ago.

Always smile
for a little while
your eyes I've seen burn
like a lost little child.

Lips stuttering
no pride at all
ashamed to speak of
all I feel I'm losing
but because of you
I smile like no other.

In you I see the greatest view
the brightest star
run
walk
whatever you may dream
just come back
and instill life inside of me.

Descending into heaven
escaping from hell
driving down that highway
into a sea of faces
reflections of myself in you
reflections of you in I.

No one gets in
no one gets out alive
swallow you
our innocence
purity.

Who are you
who am I
just tired of hanging around
waiting 
wondering
what do you see
when you look in my eyes.

A breath of new life
your words have touched me
with your gentle voice
your sweet whispers
have whisked me away
to a place I've only dreamed of walking.

With your eyes mesmerized
on my every move
catching every sweet word
that rolls off of our tongues
tumbling from my lips
waiting to release
all that's held you down
broken you
because before you
is a lost little boy
with a heart so pure and true.

I remembering thinking
I could love you like no other
and we touch each other
with risks like no other.

Lost little girl
we want the world
to see our destinys now
bringing these worries you and I share
to a wonderful end.

But we never can
when we're alone
separate
timid and scared
without each other
we have to much to bear.

It's our time to try
let's take a walk
awake to each other's eyes
live in that dream sleep
that you wish was your life.

Lets step into the ocean
of love thats risen to our thighs
because when we talk for hours
I feel you let me inside
but I feel that this is not an illusion
there's only one conclusion
that can end my confusion
when you bring my wildest dreams to life
so real that I can touch them
feel them
see them
breathe them
like never before
for this is the first time.

Reason for writing:

    It's about a girl that I work with, and in the past 4 months we've become best friends.  But I've fallen for her because she's just like me in every way.  But she doesnt feel the same cause she sees to much of herself in me.  So this is just about how she makes me feel, and I guess whats its like holding on to the hope that someday, we could be together.
