I'm so tall
but I feel so small
Standing next to the power you inspire
Standing next to the child I desire
I choke, I cough, I bleed, it's rough
It's too bad it gets so tough

Just to converse
what you all truly mean
What I think of your eyes
Any lies
Freedom dies
He Cries
I'm glad
I won't be sad

We deserve what we get.

So why can't I get you?
So cute and so pure
Your life is incredible
Your love is indelible
But I don't truly hold it...

I say
It's the fire in my eyes
And the flash of my teeth
The swing of my waist
And the joy in my feet.

Thank you Maya Angelou for heating my ice
It doesn't have to be nice
When they just can't get it
Can't read my stories
Can't grasp my love
Won't even try
But we do
We know what's true
The beautiful dreamer

Things won't ever change
A different day another range
So I'll give it you
Soaking through eyes of blue
My love, heart, soul, body, strength, is ours.
