La dee da doo,

Zoop a zee,
Will you kiss me?
Zoop a zee,
My love, don't you see?

The art of expression needn't,
A canvas,
A page,
A rock,
A brush,
A pen,
A chisel.

The art of expression needs only,
You,
Your heart,
And a path out.

Is poetry an art or an expression?
Rhymes, rhythms, charms, pain,
Tell me, is it art? Is it expression?

I cannot deny poetry is an art,
Full of beauty and elegance.
Poets have such passion to write,
Which is why I have never been a poet.
I simply express myself through pen and paper,
With a poetic soul, yes, but I'm not a poet.

I now know what's best;
I don't know what's worse:
The certainty that I love you,
Or the certainty that you can't know.

I know it's what I must do,
You'll never know my affection.
I would've given you the world,
But our story won't be written.

I'm sorry, so sorry...
Love isn't worth it.
These tears...
I'm sorry.

God, is there no end to addiction in our lifetime?
Why does fickle flesh still hold power over us?
I know I can't understand Your marvelous way,
But God, why do we fight against Your Heart?
Your love is sufficient to sustain us;
We cast it aside for a mirage of dust.

We are Your Children, adopted by Your Design,
But we so often choose Your enemy to dine with.
Abba, save our rebellious hearts.
Abba, save my rebellious heart...
Turn us away from what You hate.
Turn me away from what You hate.

I feel like I'm knowing You less and less,
Can You give me more faith?
Forgive us.
Forgive me.

My worn and weary heart,
Is made alive by your side,
In your presence I feel good,
You make me so happy.

How could I tell you how I feel?
Would you feel the same thing?
I know my love is the real deal,
I don't want a superficial fling.

I would climb into your ear,
Get inside that pretty head,
Know if your heart is here,
In this river of love I tread.

Could you give me a sign?
A signal?
Show me what you're feeling?
Don't be scared.

Maybe on second thought,
We should lock it all up.
After all time, still be aught,
It's best not to drink this cup.

We shouldn't ruin something this good,
I'm scared of pushing this too far,
If we could be in love I think we would,
This is confusing to me, so bizarre.

Can't you see,
These blood stains,
From my heart,
To your heart?

Are you blind,
To my love,
That's not subtle,
Only for you?

How do I,
Make you fall,
In love with,
My poor self?

Can it be,
That you would,
Fall for me?
I love you.

It's true.
