Jacket
Unveiling Love's Layers: Chris DuPont's Jacket Chronicles
Lyrics
I keep my jacket on
I choose to keep wearing my jacket.
There to warm me when you're gone
The jacket provides comfort in your absence.
I never kept a friend for long
Historically, I struggle to maintain friendships.
But I began to want to
However, my desire for connection grew.
On the day that I stumbled upon you
I developed this desire when I encountered you.
Sulking at the back
You seem upset, wearing a striking black outfit.
Pretty fury dressed in black
Expressing a captivating anger or intensity.
I don't presume to walk your path
I don't claim to understand your experiences.
But if nobody's worthy
If no one is deemed deserving, life is a game without consequences.
All is play and nothing is dirty
Everything becomes mere play, devoid of moral implications.
You are the night well spent
You represent a night of fulfillment.
I'm your well of good intent
I am a source of genuine goodwill.
None of it grown or provident
Our connection lacks maturity or foresight.
But were you bound to find me
But did you have a predetermined destiny to meet me?
Like a fortune in her own timing
Similar to a timely and unexpected stroke of luck.
We gave in to happenstance
We yielded to chance, but communication dwindled.
And we've barely spoken since
We spoke little since that spontaneous meeting.
Dear, I am sad and unconvinced
I confess my sorrow and doubt regarding my goodness to you.
I was ever good to you
Yet, you endure, unperturbed by any alarms.
But you abide and nothing alarms you
Your resilience remains steadfast.
