Stay as sweet as you are
The silence in our hearts fills the air
So it seems that our relation is perhaps cold
You with a childhood of only what you were told
And me stupid and young trying to keep hold
We both spent some time trying to fit into a certain mold
But our eyes reveal the affection we share,
I know when I feel your lustful stare
I know I look strange next to perfect you
Your face never slips to show what's within
And me with my retarded shit eating grin
Only in dreams with you I've been
Usually waging war with our kin
So really when together we only seem askew
And when you fall head over ass what can you do?
So stay as sweet as you are
And never go far
You're the big shining moon
I'm your common little star
Fate probably has plans for me on her loom
But I have no intention of leaving you soon.
You never are far
I think of you a lot
Even when your an arrogant snot
Maybe the fact that I think you're so hot
Is just proof my love life's shot
Stay as sweet as you are
Remember the moon is so bright
It blocks from view its closest star.
I was just today wondering where the expression 'shit eating grin' came from, and my sister looked it up and it some how endded up in this poem. The expression had a few different meanings but here it means trying to smile at an akward moment stupidly while you suffer silently.
