hey girl
i've been watching you
and noticed how your smile seems broken
the world is truly less of a place without you
i know you have reason to be down
but whatever it is
i will help
if i could, i'd shrink myself small
so small i could pass through your skin
into your nervous system
jump onto an electric impulse
speeding toward your brain
so fast my head flies back
my eyes feel like they'll shoot out of my skull
i'd use all my strength just to hold on
the hardest split second journey ever
but once i arrive
in your mind
i won't even look around
the secrets painted on the inner walls of your head
are yours
i would not invade your privacy
i'm there looking for one thing
and one thing only
the switch
i know it's in here somewhere
the switch that turns on your smile
the secret code
the whispered words
whatever hole must be filled
to make you happy again
the answer
is kinda scary
but i'll do it
i will try
i leave your head
return to normal size
i will hold you in my arms
give you, ALL of my love
pour it all out in front of you like,
a smorgasbord of all my deepest hopes and desires
all my feelings, thoughts and emotions
will be on display,
you are one of a select few who've seen all this
it's something i have learned not to take lightly
i have done this for too many girls and had them walk away from it
or worse
throw it all back at me
but
this i will do
for you
in hopes to see you happy again
i see your broken smile
the world really is less of a place without you..
