Jasper Sloan Yip Who Are You?
I don't know who you are yet, but you are under my skin
My knees shake from the weight of being yours
We've locked the doors to keep out the weather
We've bundled our hearts and we'll break them together
Don't I smile like such a fool when I'm talking to you?
But goddam sometimes it's so hard to speak
I can't separate you from me
What if we didn't mean any of it?
What then?
Darling, you're a piece of knotted string
It's the simple way you're so complicated
Sometimes it's lonely being in love with you but I don't even mind most days. No, you don't talk much, but I know what you've been trying to say to me with your long, loaded looks, and the quiet breaths you take
I'll see you tomorrow, but I won't know how I'm going to feel until then
