Alley Cat

You're my little alley cat
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the shallows
Of my mind

You're electric
Yet still shy
I wonder why
You hide

I'll keep your secret
Never tell
Of what befell 
You

Your mind 
Your emotions
So much commotion
Going on

Pitter patter on your tongue
Feel the rain on your skin
Feel it in your bones
And just relax

Don't you worry your pretty little head
You're too wonderful for words
A pure diamond in the rough
I know it's cliche, but it's the truth

Your eyes are so bright
Just like the sun
And even though it hurts
I can't help but stare

I see them light up
It lights a fire inside of me
Sparks my curiosity 
But you don't let me in

It's okay, I know you're scared
I'll never cause damage, I promise
I love you too much
My little alley cat
