That side

It's when you show that side of you,

you know, the one we fall into,

after which we'll make a joke

to loosen up the tension

It's when you show that side of you,

that I fall into my thoughts

deeply fall into a little thought

a little thought that holds so much

It wipes my mind clean of clutter

cluttering thoughts stop their wandering

across the shores where they often

land on the tip of my tongue

and roll off like the waves

roll onto the sand

It's when you show that side of you

That I fall into a little thought

a little thought containing so much

and I desperately try not to let it slip
