I’m not bad. It’s just that I’m not that good…

The lights are dimmed and I’m having a grin on my face. She was singing a song to calm her soul or better yet tell the world about everything she has inside. I was looking at her in the corner of my eye and cautiously tipped my cap down so she won’t see me staring at her. I said to myself, “Its nice to see her after all this time…It’s good to see her just plain happy.” I just caught myself staring at her again.

Damn! What if she notices, i told myself. Why can’t I be honest to myself and tell her things I wanna tell her. I wanna tell her how beautiful she is and how I wanted to uplift her spirit. I can’t…its better yet to just see her like this, and create a memory of how gay, happy and comforting she is. I can’t really explain the details of it all. Try as I might. It’s complicated, very complicated even from the start. One thing for sure, I loved her like a sister, like a dear friend, like a lover…and like my partner…like i’ve never loved before. The feeling never changes even with time.

“Awake”

With every appearance by you, blinding my eyes,
I can hardly remember the last time I felt like I do.
You’re an angel disguised.

And you’re lying real still,
but your heart beat is fast just like mine.
And the movie’s long over,
that’s three that have passed, one more’s fine.

Will you stay awake for me?
I don’t wanna miss anything
I don’t wanna miss anything
I will share the air I breathe,
I’ll give you my heart on a string,
I just don’t wanna miss anything.

I’m trying real hard not to shake. I’m biting my tongue,
but I’m feeling alive and with every breathe that I take,
I feel like I’ve won. You’re my key to survival.

And if it’s a hero you want,
I can save you. Just stay here.
Your whispers are priceless.
Your breathe, it is dear. So please stay near.

Will you stay awake for me?
I don’t wanna miss anything
I don’t wanna miss anything
I will share the air I breathe,
I’ll give you my heart on a string,
I just don’t wanna miss anything.

Say my name. I just want to hear you.
Say my name. So I know it’s true.
You’re changing me. You’re changing me.
You showed me how to live.
So just say. So just say,

That you’ll stay awake for me.
I don’t wanna miss anything.
I don’t wanna miss anything.
I will share the air I breathe,
I’ll give you my heart on a string,
I just don’t wanna miss anything
