Literally Inclined

You remind me of crickets on a hot summer night the only sound that can be heard for miles the air is ripe and the smell of hay lingers in this moment, when it‘s just you and me Running my fingers through your hair just feels right We don‘t need to share any words, our smiles are enough to know we‘re no longer strangers in this moment, when it‘s just you and me Orange turns to dark blue, your shadow in the moonlight We‘re stargazing and fantasizing about our lives We‘ve dreamed of this since we were teenagers in this moment, we start our eternity

I dance around you like a butterfly in a summer breeze Catching your attention with a simple smile You follow me instinctively, like a swarm of bees If you land on me, I’ll be your lily of the nile I wrap myself around you like a summer rain shower With myriads of drops dripping down your nose But you need to remember that I will always be your sunflower That represents how much our love for each other grows A single red rose could not separate us even when the winds try to tear us apart Not even her thorns could hurt us When we stay together, heart to heart I long to be your orchid,  clinging on to you, rain or shine If you could be my tree and you don't forfeit You’ll always be mine.
