You've placed yourself in me,
a single sigh for a sea of emotions.
Time after time on a canvas,
captured in the heat of your actions,
lives the passion of a dancer
and the energy of the wind.
If there exists a link between
lust and love,
a metaphor for the silence you cause,
then it is in the ebony of your eyes,
the uncertain intricacies in your voice.
This refreshes to a statement more than a love song;
I feel nothing yet.
a single sigh for a sea of emotions.
Time after time on a canvas,
captured in the heat of your actions,
lives the passion of a dancer
and the energy of the wind.
If there exists a link between
lust and love,
a metaphor for the silence you cause,
then it is in the ebony of your eyes,
the uncertain intricacies in your voice.
This refreshes to a statement more than a love song;
I feel nothing yet.
Author notes
Since you wanted a little explanation, the first bit is about the emotions towards the boy you love, and the last two lines show how the above paragraph relates to this new boy, which isn't very positive.
I hope you understood it and I hope I captured the feelings the right way.
