We’ve the time to set this right,
Boy did you never see me truly?
Across the table – gazing intently
Wanting your every word and glance
Boy I wonder why you missed it?
It was damn obvious to the world
Is because you’re not paying attention?
Or do you just want this to go away?
Boy I see you looking at me,
Come on, tell me, why is that?
It’s not just me; I think you know it too
Are you ashamed boy?
Am I honestly not good enough for you?
I don’t believe you believe that
I hope you just have a tied tongue
Imperfection hurts so deep
Are you scared of me boy?
Scared of our possibilities?
That I’ll never know, but fear is good,
Tell me what’s on your mind boy,
Tell me what’s in that heart of yours,
Sit down and talk with me,
We’ve the time to set this right,










I’m waiting in between us for the bridge
I’m building it through little steps towards you
Every now and again you lay a brick too,
Tell me why is it your coming to me?
Are you going to meet me in the middle?
I don’t think you really know what you’re building
Still you keep coming forward to me
Do you even know why that is boy?
Small things you do lay foundations for hope
And I wish you wouldn’t if you didn’t mean it
But I think that under it lies something more
Boy I hope it isn’t disgust and shame
Truly we stand on equal plans in our heart
And inside we both know it is true
Maybe one day we can talk this through
The pain of flaws being what turned you away
It can’t be so – you must have turned away out of fear
But of me? Tell me it isn’t so boy
Your truth is buried deep inside but one day we will see
Tell me what’s on your mind boy
Tell me what’s in that heart of yours
So I can lay more bricks down
Cause I’m waiting in between us for the bridge

okay werd set out i know but silly DA won't let me format it properly which means the poem loses all its effect. wat needs to be down isthe section 1 and 2 need to be lined up in two columns so that each one is read seperately downwards then read as one - across, so line 1 from section1 then line 1 from section2....

Nice! Effective metaphor with the bridge :D Ever thought of putting these into a sort of song?
