Bright City Lights

The bright lights of the city                                                                                                  illuminate all its hidden details                                                                                              with each day that i know you                                                                                                   i feel i know how to love you                                                                                                  my attempts to appreciate you                                                                                              come a little bit easier to me                                                                                                  but like the cities bright lights                                                                                                  you dim when out of sight                                     

A beam of light into the city                                                                                                reveals sharp and reflective surfaces                                                                                          on you it disperses and diffuses                                                                                    emboldening your soft complexion                                                                                       when i look through your eyes                                                                                                  i can almost feel your soul                                                                                                     when you turn away i feel so lonely

my feelings are clear to you                                                                                                  you can see the whole picture                                                                                                  when our eyes first crossed                                                                                                       i wondered if you fluttered inside.
