The Object Of Desire

The object of desire 
Set my soul on fire
With his white hair
And the way he didn’t care
He’d just run his fingers through
Like it doesn’t mean anything to you
And does he know anything about women at all
Because I catch him mid freefall
And I hope he’s still alive because in this world you never know
And maybe he has a girl on the go
I don’t know
All I know is I’d like to see his stars
One more time through these prison bars
Because they were sublime
Were they only for one time
As we sit and chat
In a fast food place just like that
And something guided me to meet you there
I looked at David and I swear
I heard him utter the words that it’s okay
If you want to walk away
And find another me
Then you walked in and the rest is history
And you do not replace his face
But I cannot let this go to waste
And you may be older and jaded
You may wear jeans that are faded
But you’ve got that lost boy look that I find
So intriguing and you share what’s on your mind
Like I don’t see what’s true
And I play dumb when I’m talking to you
Because if you guessed how sharp I am
And how I can read you like a palm
I don’t know if you would be this open
I know this is a message to the universe but here’s hoping
That it somehow makes its way to your gate
Just let me in and forgive the hate
