Number Six

Poem: nuMbEr 6 Friday, July 29, 2005

Days are growing longer
My time is running out
Should I keep on searching
Hope someday you find out

I lie awake at night and stare
You awake me unaware
Dreams of you stream through my head
I know that feeling anywhere

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?

Walking through the morning dew
Its cold against my feet
Naked in the grassy moonlight
Toes frozen in the wind

Hold me close in the dark
Never lose me in the night
Until tomorrow comes again
Keep we warm in the rain

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?

Alone I can no longer be
I need you here with me
Pretend that you love me
And I’ll pretend your mine

Don’t wanna be alone to think
Minds abyss I’d sink
Can’t erase you from my head
Don’t wanna forget

Tried not to analyze
What I saw with my two eyes
I watch you look at me
Can you stay the night

Each day I find excuse
To sneak into your view
Can you feel it too?
What can this become?

Will you be my number 6?
Will you hold me when I am sick?
Will you kiss me every night?
Tuck me in and hold me tight?
Will you be my number 6?
