Shining Star.

When I first saw you
Your long locks, your complicated view
I knew we'd be sharing stories back and forth
You're worth more than you know

You hide behind your tattoos, your long locks
Which you love,
Your dazzling blue eyes light up when you smile
Which you keep on lock and guard

Complicated glances, complicated stances
What you have here is a cheap, plastic romance
Where nothing lasts and nothing here is real
The only thing that's real is time and time is money

You put up walls and tear mine down
With your awkward moments turned memories
We insist the other should run away from current situation
If time and place were on our side, things wouldn't be as they are

Words and rhymes guide the day
Work side by side, pretending its all okay
It doesn't get easier to see you like this
Settling because its convenient you tell me

Complicated glances, fixed stances
We observe in like from afar
Wondering for just a solitary moment
What if you were mine?

We're too much alike, I think
That's why we care, that's why we're there
We need to forget our troubling past and
Remember what we want for our future

You need to love you before you love anyone you see
I can't tell you who to be, or who to see
You're worth more than you're allowing yourself to be
Don't lose track of who you are; you're a star.
