    around the corner i turn

    around the corner i turn

    i step into the hall
    my head lowered
    watching the steps i take

    i glance up and see you
    you there in all your beauty
    i look down again

    taking it all in
    seeing you in my mind
    i take a slow, deep breath

    my eyes open
    and i see your face
    the radiance of your smile

    your soft, beautiful lips
    your eyes find mine
    i smile and you look away

    i frown and sigh once again
    did she even see me?
    or did she look right through me

    i would never know
    she would never tell
    around the corner i turn
    It takes a strong man to cry, but it takes an even stronger man to laugh at that man.

    awesome? yes

    Really liked it, there is a kind of innocence abt it that touched me
    You cannot build a future from the debris of the past
