'Unexpected Tenderness'


On the verge of a controversial feeling
I’m working real hard to conceal
In a state of permanent confusion
I can’t tell the fake from the real

In the time it took you to convince me
I’m not the man I used to be
Why does it hurt so much I can’t say?
When I don’t miss that part of me

I keep my expectations low
Although I care more than you know

Unexpected tenderness
Much better than emptiness
I confess I’m so hard to surprise,
Undiluted eagerness
More fun than bitterness
I’m impressed!

On the cusp of an existential impasse
No note of solace to be found
The rush of thoughts make me uneasy
As I come crashing to the ground

Impossible to see it from all sides
Even though it’s dancing before my eyes

Unexpected tenderness
Much better than emptiness
I confess I’m so hard to surprise,
Undiluted eagerness
More fun than bitterness
I’m impressed!
