he has eyes that are unreadable
and a mouth curling constantly to a smile
so how I can I possibly think
I know exactly what he wants?
and maybe he wants nothing
I've wanted nothing before
or it could be that I'm not the one
others do flock around him
but those eyes that are unreadable
are so beautiful
so deep and centered
like a diamond violently hewn
to produce unmatchable awe
and that constantly curling mouth
is so sweet
so happy and unassuming
and sends out a voice like the wind
whispering through leaves
and maybe he wants nothing
wouldn't that be a shame?
