LET THEM KNOW I TRIED

It's in how you hold my hand under this beautiful sky adorned with stars that put the city lights to shame It's in how I find re-assurance in your eyes,that I can always trust you It's in how my heart skips a beat when you whisper in my ear It's in your embrace It's in your caress It's in your kisses It's in how you always manage to make the past moments we've spent together pale in comparison with the present "I am taken." So you keep telling me in the midst of my advances But if they ever decide to put my life in script, Let them add that I yearned to save you from an ill-fated love, that did nothing but weaken you Just like you rescued me from grotesque images of not being loved like I loved © Nana.
