We speak the same nonverbal language.
I know what every look in your eye means.
I can say so much to you without a single consonant or vowel.
You can ease my most viscous mood with a slight touch of your hand against my shoulder.
That slanted smile of yours feels like it was made specifically for me. Maybe that's because I know what it's really saying.
Our personalities mesh. Mesh more than all of the jerseys of the starting lineup woven together. (That's a lot of mesh.)
You even understand jokes like that before I have to explain them.
We are quite perfect for each other.
But you are not my girlfriend. You never have been. And there's a slight chance that you never will be.
Our relationship is nothing more than a heightened friendship. A wonderful friendship. But a friendship nonetheless.
Would we work well together? Probably. Actually... almost certainly.
Is it the right time to find out? Neither of us know for sure.
Right now I am conflicted. Maybe we both are. Neither of us is closed off to the options of meeting other people and taking a stab at a relationship. But if I was to settle down with someone else, my first thought would be worrying that I might be hurting you. I don't want to hurt you.
The same stands the other way around. If you found someone else, I would be more than happy for you. But would I be slightly somber inside? Surely.
For now let's just see what life has in store for us and play this by ear.
Or, knowing us, play it by eye.
I am subliminally yours.
Live, love & learn!

It intrigues me, as always, to know how you stand when it comes to women. Just when I think that you may have given up on the race due to a bitter relationship or past (believe me, I knew what/who some of your tweets were referring to), you shock me with this beautiful piece of art. You surely will be a blessing to ANY woman that comes in your life for the RIGHT reasons and vice versa. You do have a much more fair mind about the opposite sex, one that should not be slept on or taken advantage of, and I respect your respect FOR us. As you know, enough men aren't in the same ballpark, let alone FIELD as you are mentally and it is enticing to read your thoughts and feelings.
I would consider reading some of these pieces during a Jazz set of a Jazz lounge, if they have those in L.A... just a thought ;0)
Kudos and peace and love!
Haha... Never count me out when it comes to matters of the heart. Remember, not all of these posts are about my personal experiences. I just always write in first person. (That way nobody can tell which are about me and which aren't. lol...)
And I have definitely thought about reading some of my writings aloud at a spoken word event. :-)
Oh ok! That does make it better to disguise yourself and more importantly to be true to yourself.
The way some of your art is portrayed its as if they are ALL real experiences. Great way to capture the audience.
Smooches!
