its all in my head

i had a secret once, its no longer
my woman's self was a river of poison.
but before you get hooked on my venom and can't live without it....
i find it hard to trust
i get emotional and sometimes lose control,
just would love to know the tune of your soul.

if at all you believe my yearns are for only those quivers that possess me, i don't mind as long as you keep reaching for me in the dark.
i drift off sometimes in wonder of the paths you've been down, the flowers you've picked and gardens you've laid.
but only in the wake of my dreams of leaving a mark that will last a lover's lifetime.

i'm down for you...
down on me...i like it.
your pride, talented,
my joy, share with me.

you brought her out,
rid darkness, birthed this
hungry, young...
tell her, let it slide down your tongue.

some say reassurance, i say the blocks you build with words, around my security, that lead up to where you pushed my boundaries up into the air, to a limitless sky. i need them...

don't concern yourself with the jokes my jesters make,
i can only share the shallow.
what is us is ours.
you never have to look far for me.
its just that sometimes the road to you seems so unfamiliar.
where are you?

my confusion only comes into question 'coz i'm so convinced.
i'm still here with you...
