I'm thinking of you.
I'm thinking of you like crazy!
I'm thinking about you like yes thinks about no.
like no thinks about maybe.
like a mother thinks about her baby.
like a baby thinks about their mother as she tucks them under the covers.
I'm thinking of you like tortilla chips think about being covered.
in a warm soft warm smooth blanket of nacho cheese.
Like a photographer thinks about saying, "cheese".
like a soldier staring down the barrel of a gun is crying, "please, please"
because all he wants to one day see
is his family.
I'm thinking about you like drums think about rhythm.
like bands think about music.
like rubber bands think about snapping.
like rubber balls think about bouncing.
I'm thinking about you like lions think about pouncing.
like mathletes think about counting.
like audiences think about shouting.
I'm thinking about you like children think about shouting!
like children think about crayons.
like crayons think about coloring.
like artists think about coloring.
like artists think about being nothing
but themselves.
I'm thinking about you like a boy thinks about becoming a man.
like a white girl thinks about getting a sun tan.
like a young girl thinks about one day finding the perfect young man,
to one day be with
forever.
I'm thinking about you like the sun thinks about setting.
like casinos think about betting.
like sinners think about regretting.
I'm thinking about you every night and day.
I'm thinking about you when I wake up
when I eat lunch
and all of the days of the week ending in "ay"
I'm thinking about you all of the time
because I'm just trying to find
the words to say
I love you.
