The Imposing Spine of Me

by Biaytbo   Sep 10, 2010


How is my heart suppose to feel?
I feel like I don't know anymore
I have so many feelings
I don't even know what to do about them
These feelings make my heart sore

I love her yes that's true but I also love her...
When she is around me
I feel so scared and uncomfortable
She doesn't know how it affects me
I'm falling even harder and harder for her

I just wish she could see
the imposing spine of me
that defines the west coast of South America
from Tierra Del Fuego to the Caribbean Sea
This is the face that's changing a thousand minds

Trying to take it all in is like
listening to a Jazz tune with a million variations
Everywhere I went I heard the sound of Samba
the high spirit indigenous music of Brazil
whose rhythms are African through and through

The Smell of fields before harvest
the crystal clarity of a night
the intimacy of conversations on the road

Oh how i wish she would just see
How She Affects Me
The Imposing Spine of Me
That Defines Me
