The 'Poem A Day' Project ~ Day 274 Poem by Flying Lemming

You are beautiful and I want you, you bring a heat to me
I want to rip your clothes off and explore you intimately
These are the words I ached to say to you at the bar
But the distance from brain to mouth proved a bit to far
I lost my nerve and missed my chance and stood there all alone
Not even brave enough to get the number for your phone

You are beautiful and I want you, you bring a heat to me
I want to rip your clothes off and explore you intimately
These are the words I longed to say to you in the street
But my head filled with cotton wool and lead was in my feet
So I just passed you silently, with just a little sigh
But as we passed I think that I might have caught your eye

You are beautiful and I want you, you bring a heat to me
I want to rip your clothes off and explore you intimately
I wrote this on some paper, when I saw you on the bus
And casually passed it to you, trying to make no fuss
You looked at it and smiled and laughed, making me feel great
And gave me your number and agreed to have a date

I was waiting round your house while you went off to change
Just me and your granny there, that’s when things went strange
She smiled and came over to me, wrinkly beyond belief
And grabbed my thigh and whispered through her false teeth
You are beautiful and I want you, you bring a heat to me
I want to rip your clothes off and explore you intimately
