Let Down YOur Guard

The art of being a woman
The ability to make a man believe he can dominate
A slight thought of commitment
That we've yet to consummate
As we go through life we see
there is so much that we don't understand
How a girl can catch such strong feelings
For the LEAST expecting man
A plethora of heartbreak
Causing neglect & pain
What could usually be repressed
Can no longer be contained
I've been picking up the pieces
Of someone else's mess
I've come to the conclusion
That your different from the rest
I can usually hide it
But with u its just so hard
We have potential i can feel it
Baby just let down your guard
I know that you've been hurt
I feel your pain its true
But baby give us one shot
& i promise i won't hurt you
I'm no usually the one
To catch feelings sit & wait
But something about you
Puts me in a kind of vulnerable state
This is somewhat hard for me
Cause I'm not usually the one
TO sit & twiddle my thumbs
waiting on anyone
I don't usually say this
& I've played my last card
I could make it worth your while
If u just let down your guard

The Wait.

I smell him from across the room
& I can't help but smile
The wait to be in his embrace
Makes the pain all worthwhile
I never had a thing for him
The feeling was so abrupt
& as our lips continue to touch
I feel myself erupt
I'm collapsing in his arms
As his lips are parting mine
I'm longing to know how he feels
As I'm searching for a sign
The confusion & the rush
All together hurts so good
Caressing me in ways that
I never thought he would
Before I can prepare myself
Our tongues are intertwined
Bringing me to the ecstasy
that have longed to find
Explosions getting more intense
As I lose self control
I've had my fair share of game
But with him they broke the mold
I don't know how he does it
& honestly I don't care
But I don't wanna waste my time
Feeling something that's not there
& even though it kills me
To not know whats going on
It may not be the right thing
But neither does it feel wrong
I smell him from across the room
& I can't help but smile
The wait to be in his embrace
Makes the pain all worthwhile
So I'm gonna take my chances
& hope this all works out
Not gonna put in too much thought
To figure out what this shits about
& I hope i find out quickly
Hope that its not too late
Until that faithful moment
I'll just have to wait.
