Lover, I know you keep my heart,
Locked safe inside your chest,
I know you love it as your own,
But what about the rest?
Like do you know what moves me?
What fascinates and soothes me?
Do you know my inner peace
My inner walk of pride
Does it make you wonder
What depths I've left inside?
Don't you know my passions?
My whims, my arts, my fashions?
Don't you know the words I write?
And don't you know my dreams?
Don't you know my every glance
My every touch and sigh?
Have you ever wondered
What lies behind my eyes?
I know your eyes a thousand ways
Their every fleck and speck of grey
Their soft blush of golden hues
That rests amidst the greeny blues
Do you know the colour brown?
That is unique to mine?
Could you even pick them out
Without being given a sign?
Do you know how I feel
When you act like that?
The sinking disappointment
In the intelligence I lack
The loneliness that comes from
Not being good enough
Do you know that?
Can you tell?
Do you just choose not to act?
My body you know very well,
My every crest and every swell,
But not my mind and its enthralls
My lovely, wonderfully complete all
You keep my heart, that's what it's for
I only wish you knew me more.
