Sometimes it's not clear to me

(new lyrics... sometimes lyrics come first... tomorrow, the song... ??ha!) - it's past midnight but it's always valentines day to me no matter what hour or minute or month or year ....)
_________
Sometimes it's not clear to me
Why you are near to me
It hasn't anything at all to do
With you.
No, it's just new to me
The things you do to me
It never dawns on me to ask you
To be true.
This heart of mine is
Riddled with its questions.
Add to that my strange perception
Of time .....
Yet still you hold each second
For inspection
In a fragile glass
Imperfect like my rhyme.
It's never clear to me
How perfect harmony
Can ever claim a lyric
With a melody that's fair.
This heart of mine is
Riddled with its questions.
Did I mention that I love you
More than air?
Did I tell you yet today
The way your flair with words
Has made me stay
Hitched quickly
To the comet of your star?
So far.....
You have brought me irises and laughter.
Yes, you have brought me petals from a rose.
And no, there is no imminent disaster
From the stems or scents or reminiscent
Rows of arrows shot out from your bow
And still,.
But still
Yes still ......
Sometimes it's not clear to me
Why you are near to me
Although I love your presence
Much more than my breath.
The crime of passion is
A dare that's often missed
A kiss of metaphor, and yes
I'm sometimes blind to it
The reason rhyme of it
That it's not clear to me
Yet.
