You're Name's Not Understanding, is it Babe?

by Meet Me On Thames Street   Nov 27, 2008


I want to match that excellence.
Write clear from my soul,
with such conviction.
have it ring perfectly clear,
yet carry it's own mystery
in the lines.
I want to show everyone these thoughts,
flitting around
like fragile butterflies,
hesitant to land.
just lightly touching down,
just barely seen or heard
before they're whisked away.
I want to finally know
for myself,
what this need,
this insatiable urge
is pushing me towards.
Where all the butterflies come from,
where they fly to.
I want to understand it.
I want you to understand it.
I want you to wrap your arms around me,
and say you understand it all.
I want you to know me,
like no one else knows me.
I want you to understand this better then I do.
because maybe,
if someone can understand this
then somehow,
I will be able to understand it,
and I will write without hesitation
For everyone else to see,
and finally understand
