When I open my eyes I search for your face
It escapes my vision, not quite in my point of view
You aren’t exactly what I hoped for is plastered on both of our faces
You shudder as I inch closer to you and avoid my attempted greet and embrace
This reminds me of the chase but normally both people are in the race
Perhaps this was a mistake plays in my mind like an old record player
It constantly skips the best part
We realize that the blind can’t lead the blind
So I close my eyes and open them again
Hoping that just maybe this time it will be different
Maybe all of my time won’t be annoyingly spent
I’ve gotta stop letting my friends set me up on these things
As that thought crosses my mind, my phone rings
Sigh. This is an emergency and I’ve gotta run
Dodged a bullet, now I can go have some real fun (Netflix and leftovers)
Peace and Love,
