Curiosity [[Random Rambles of the Heart]]
by Heather Owens
Curiosity, that is what entangles me.
I’m curious to know if you just might love me.
I could see myself with a guy like you
I’d like to think we would have a chance.
These feelings are so new to me.
This hope that I have is suffocated by the fear in my heart;
Knowing you will never feel the same as I do,
But hoping that somehow you just might pick me.
In this sky of beautiful stars
I don’t shine as bright as the others
But I hope you notice my faint sparkle
Because you are my moon, my sun, my whole sky.
You cause me sleepless, poetic nights,
You fill my mind as I wake with the sunrise,
And you circle through my dreams each time the moon hangs in space.
We don’t have to dive into this ocean of love,
But instead, we could wade in inch by inch
That way, there’s no chance of drowning,
But just so you know,
I'm caught in your undertow.
