Anytime:

As I was sitting here Brian McKnights' song 'Anytime' came into my head. So, I ask you - Do I ever cross your mind Anytime? It's strange because I find myself thinking of you. Your name, how you look, your age, what you do for a living and a million other things I would only know if I knew you on a day-to-day basis. I'm sure you have alot going on in your life but do you think of me at all? Out of sight, out of mind is a reality for us in here. Would it take for me to become a household name and your favorite artist for you to give me a moment of your day, just by listening to me? Or what if I was moving to your area, destiny pulled us together and my name resurfaces in your life(on a more intimate level) would you think of me when I'm gone? Would you look forward to hearing from me then? Would my words have more meaning if I was your brother incarcerated? Well, if I loved you and sat my jacket down over every puddle you crossed, opened every door for you, had a good relationship with your mother and you with mine, I even know how to touch you, know how to kiss you, know how to lick you and how to stick you..and on top of that I'd give you the last bite of my chicken parmesan and you know how I love it but I'd be trying to show you I love you even more - Would that help you think of me when I'm out your sight? Would you be my friend through my time of need? Could you be faithful to me? Or would everything you and I have done for our relationship be worth nothing when I'm out of your presence? These things and so much more cross my mind when I think of you, whoever you may be. I think if you were here beside me you may understand how it feels to wonder if your family and friends will be alright and everyday in good health. But back to you. Everytime I write I want you to feel me and open your mind for stimulation so we can be one together, however brief that moment may be but I'd like it to be our moment to be shared. But the fact of the matter is I've forever been out of your sight. I never sent you roses to your job to make you the topic of discussion between your co-workers. You have never been nervous from anticipation of seeing yours truly. However, I have opened my heart so it can spill love on these pages for your mind. I have let you know I'm just as curious about you, if not more than you are of me. Does your curiosity continue when you turn off your computer? If I am in your mind what do I look like? Please let me know the answer to this! I may not be high yellow in the winter and bronze in the summer in your mind. Maybe my teeth are perfect and I don't have that front one chipped. Maybe I'm 6feet 2 and a little chubby instead of 5'7'' and slim with a 6 pack. Maybe I'm the answer to all your dreams you wish for in a man. Well, however you may see me in your mind - it doesn't matter long as I'm in your mind. Listen to 'Anytime' and while you do visualize me. I can be your father,cousin or brother, closest friend or most satisfying lover. I may, for now, be out your sight but see me in your mind how you like. Long as I'm there- out of sight but in your mind see me very clear. I'll be there for you in time physically - so for now enjoy me mentally..visually... Anytime
