Scared little clown


I walked into the crowded room
Smoke filled air I think of leaving soon
Looking for nothing , but passing my time
I sat across from her and I start to pine

While we speak my mind is wandering
Mutual thoughts and things in common
I am so complex that’s what everyone sees
Yet only 10 minutes and she understands me

I wanted to flirt but barely the nerve
Intimidated by beauty couldn’t find the right words
As the night passes I feel that I fail
This scared little boy has tucked his own tail

All I wanted to say is can we talk again soon
As I quietly watch her briskly leave the room
I beat myself up and tear myself down
I mean what would she want with the scared little clown

Yet I did get the chance to see her again
Courage building a little through the sweat of my hands
Connecting so easily Although I’m timid and shy
I loosen my guard without asking myself why

Is this possible I really must know
Second chances at life my dead eyes start to glow
My hard heart starts to pound when I think shes around
My rough exterior cracks, crumbles to the ground

Weak yet larger than life with a touch of her hand
With the blink of her eyes I feel like more than a man
The soft embrace of her lips leaves me wanting more
Intertwined in a hug I float from the floor

Waiting impatiently to feel her next to me again
Hold her feel her breathe and the touch of her skin
Her smile intensity intelligence grace
Leave me standing here helpless hopeless amazed

I am standing here once beaten broken and bruised
Naked vulnerable arms open with nothing to lose
For this woman has made this smile from a frown
And created a man of this scared little clown…….
