Letter From a Motorcycle To a Traffic Light

My beloved traffic light,
How's it going? You doing alright?
I haven't left my house in about two days so I really miss you
I've been driving on little streets that are residential
Been trying to find a replacement for you but I saw no potential
I keep running into dead ends and stops
Went too fast on a bump and my tires popped
You know I have shown my love time and time again at the intersection of hope and love
Been watching you watching me from above
And I know there's a height difference
But I'll get bigger wheels for you if thats your preference
See, my engine revs for you
You wouldn't even imagine my chain of thoughts for you
You may not be ready to love me but I will wait
I will wait at that same old place
I will wait for you to give me permission to go
Im not gonna rush things cause I know your not a....
Yo, I'll chase after you like a greedy man chased after green
So don't play with my heart, we're on the same team
And while I wait, I will not cross that line
and if I do, I'll back up and wait for my time
I'll wait for you to notice me
Yes, in this circle I will be
I will treat your friends well and never run their reds
Because I've seen a car door meet a bikes head, light
You are my light
These other lights on the side they wanna roll on the ride but your the one who saves lives
You keep me from bad company that crosses my path
You know a lot more than I do but I think I win at math
See I have numbers in my head all day long
You've got my head twisted like the wrong lyrics to a song
And though I'm low on juice, I'll run that extra mile for you
Now, please understand that I'm writing this letter because I'm two tired of hiding this passion
If you want me to stay current I'll keep up with the new bike fashion
I wanna shift the gears of our relationship
And I'll go hard for you like a racing bike in a championship
I saw you turn yellow when I said hello
I didn't mean to make you nervous but you still turned red, I deserved it
I know you see all kinds of bikes and cars
But just know that that my love for you will go very far
Sincerely,
Your manly motorcycle
