Uncensored.

Posted on June 7, 2012 By rayawambui No Comments on Uncensored.

I think about you when I shouldn’t be.
When I’m meant to be in the beat.

I’m thinking about you.

I’m speaking my own words, trying to be myself around you. But it doesn’t work,
because when I’m around you, you are all I see.
You contain my deepest hope, everything I put to words.

‘If I took your heart I’d be a woman.‘

Or maybe your what I need to want to be who I need to be.
To be who I need to be tomorrow.

If so, I hope I’m who you need to take you where you need to follow.
I hope at least, that I can help you grow.
That I can lead you out that shadow.
