Dancing

Dancing

By

Nathan Caleb Camerer

I guess I should have went dancing thru the daisies

Doing the “Happy Dance”

Which kind of looks like the “PeePee Dance” when I do it

After we ended

That would have made the gossip true

The words I spoke

While looking into your brown eyes

That was the truth

I love you

I don’t want to leave you

I want to work things out

The weight of the world on your shoulders

You’re in a position you’ve never been in

Trying to be something you’ve never had to be

And you don’t know how to handle it

Looking for advice from people who’ve never been there either

And are completely biased

Because of their connection to the problem

An impulse decision that isn’t thought through

Because of faith in God’s Plan

I tell you “good luck”

I tell you “it makes sense”

I tell you “I’m not mad at you”

I tell you to go with God

Those words I spoke

While looking in your brown eyes

Standing in the mist

That was the truth

Highs and lows of love and hate

Instead of walking on sunshine

Happy to be in the “Friend Zone”

I’m walking on eggshells

Never knowing when you might snap

Because everything I say or do

Gets twisted around to mean something else

By people who never liked me

Genuine interest in people gets turned into stalking

Constantly distracted by memories and dreams

Trying to figure out why we can’t be friends

I guess I should just go dancing thru the daisies
