I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready
I am fine
Watching you has always been my favorite things to do Liz.
I always wonder what would happen if you knew the truth about me? Would you run?
Cry?
Or would you do the unthinkable? Actually look at me and say that you love me too?
I am taffy stuck and tongue-tied
Stutter shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready I am fine
I have dreams Liz. They usually have you, 2.5 kids, and me. And a dog of course.
Maybe one day they will become true
I sit in your section everyday just to see you. I swear that you give me a special smile. No one else can see it, but I can.
Maybe one day Liz, I can love you without being afraid. Maybe one day I can look at you without imagining you run away in fright.
I’m not a monster Liz.
Maybe I’m not human, but maybe…just maybe, you can make me feel as if I belonged.
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded and unfolded and unfolding
I’m waiting to get out Liz…I’m waiting to live.
As I pay you my check I can’t help but think that maybe I could tell you…maybe I could I love you without any secrets…without any regrets.
I slowly walk out of the restaurant. My thoughts lingering on what might be, what might happen. Maybe I can have a chance to be happy, really, truly, and utterly happy.
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready
I am fine
Maybe tomorrow.
