I See The Horse Up Close

Why do you talk to me when you know what I want
I never say it to you, you too don't say it aloud.
This game of cat and mouse is kind of tiring me out
Just wait a while will you, soon you'll hear me shout out loud.
But I am confused, don't know what I want
It's always been the same, since the day I could count.
I see the horse up close, but I can't mount.

I never ever was good at times like this
Give me a hint, a clue or I'll slip and miss. 
I don't get why you act so harsh and wild
When I talk so meek and so damn mild.
I don't know, don't care what you think inside
I make guesses, take chances, throw the dice.
I see the horse up close, but I'm afraid to ride.

These words of mine they sing and dance
My pen's mightier than that guy's lance.
I'll write you words you've never heard
A bending river, clear skies, a little bird.
The whole day you just stare at me like that
Forget every single time to rub shoes on the mat.
I see the horse up close, but then I let it go.

You gonna be saying a lot of poetry over here.
