Mistiming or Unfolding? Part 1 of 3

 Mistiming or Unfolding?

Part 1 of 3

We've reached a point where 

Our relationship is at a standstill

We are the grey

Between black and white

The words have gone dry

And our emotions subdued

Though gladness is still in our eyes

Our hearts no longer flutter

We're back to where we started

We need a reconnection

A lost of feelings

Our timings didn't match

And we both lost ourselves

In an almost answered call

You came in too early

At a moment when I wasn't sure 

I didn't heed your signs

And it was when I was ready

I discretely gave you a go

Unknown to me

You've already given up

This could be a play on fate

A sign that we were never meant to be

Just a sweet passing

That you and me?

I'm still hoping what could be

But at this point I'll sit still

And wait a little longer

Hope a little more

For when things might start again

I already have the answer

The Closer I Get To You by Franco Reyes

 

For the month of love, I'm enjoying listening to Franco Reyes' version of The Closer I Get to You that was originally sung by Roberta Flack (I recommend her song and version of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.) I love his intro about being in the friendzone...because that was harsh, and his sly remark with his grin is annoyingly attractive. Anyway, the one thing I've come to realize last year, with uptrend of the term "5 Love Languages", that my love language is Acts of Service. I wasn't aware of this whole love language until a friend asked me to take the quiz. It's funny how as I was taking the quiz that I was laughing at myself for realizing that maybe I need an assistant more than the lover. I love people doing stuff for me, more than receiving gifts, hearing praises, getting physical touches...but quality time did come in at a close second love language...because there's nothing more comforting than just by feeling my love's presence right next to me. I've been listening to Franco's version of the song since early last year because his voice and the way he was singing it was really hot, but when I started listening to the lyrics the more I was able to connect with the song. Yeah...I get captured when you give me all you've got. XD

The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving me all you got

Your love has captured me

Over and over again

I tried to tell myself that we

Could never be more than friends

And all the while inside I knew it was real

The way you make me feel
