How to open up by Aaron HowardPondering how to open my heart whole.
How to show you all the special parts of my soul.
Wondering how to make you smile so bright.
How to help you look inward to see the light.
The light that burns in you and the talent you posses
and how you seem to always make the best out of any mess.
How life can always kick you down, but you can pick back up
and when you get a little too tired you like to sip a coffee cup.
You drive like Andretti and you only play to win
and if living you is evil, then I must be committing a sin.
I've dreamt about talking to you on the phone late at night
and when I woke up, I didn't know if that even came off right...
I still bask in memories of us standing at great falls
and how somewhere I felt a crumble in my great walls...
Into my heart, you sunk your nails for only you to claim
and I've only one person and that is for me to blame...
I've never had a chance to meet someone as awesome as you
and reasons why I shouldn't speak my mind are so few
But I am not one to recklessly use love in such a petty way.
Not like someone who likes to say 'I love you' everyday.
For I have never met anyone quite as unforgettable as you
and if anything you was the greatest gift I ever knew.
You made me think that not all women we're bad
and not be resentful over the losses I once had.
You made me laugh all raccoon eyed for 48 hours
and your green eye's and their mysterious powers.
I never knew how bad I was to fall for you till I opened this book
and opened my head up and really pondered a look.
I was shocked and smelted with your diversity of lex
and I've never been one to just be interested in the sex.
For someone to charm me in such the way you did,
throwing down that trump card on my hearts bid..
For it's ante up time at the heartbreak saloon
and for once I don't feel like the love drunk fool.
I feel sure and complete in knowing there is someone like me
and it seems for my heart she really holds the key.
Now will this be different from another tragic love song.
Will I have this woman to be pining for the rest of my life long?
Will I be happy when I smell her favorite perfume
and when she's around, will I feel my heart bloom?
