The Fly

 

If I was a fly on a wall

 

I'd watch you closely and see what you like

 

High above upon the wall, I'd drink it in

 

your every move

 

With myriad eyes to see you clear

 

I'd take in your beauty and flutter my wings

 

I'd rub my front legs together with anticipation

 

Watching the chocolate you taste and savor

 

If I was a fly on the wall

 

I'd buzz wide

 

I'd buzz low

 

Wanting to be closer to you

 

yet not wanting you to brush me away

 

If I was a fly on the wall

 

I'd spend my days being as near as can be

 

This very short life

 

would be meant for you

 

If only I was a fly on the wall

If you were a fly on MY wall, your life would be even shorter, hehe

I know you mean that you would like to be close to the one you hold dear, but in all reality, you may end up being smashed guts on the floor.

Inspiration comes from some of the smallest things.

hehehee, once again i do love this poem, usually being a fly on the wall indicates someones clandestine need to eavesdrop but I'd have u around under any circumstances xxx and i'd throw away my flyspray ..lol
