I found her one day
mistakenly, I must say
I couldn’t help but stare and wonder
who she was and how she began to plunder my mind
Yet I could do nothing but that...
Wonder
How her very beauty intimidated me
Introductions were brief as I retreated to safety
In the solitude of someplace familiar
I wonder what’s come over me...

Her smile lingers in my mind like a veil of radiance
It brings me warmth and reassurance
You see she cleanses my mind of doubts and concerns
Brings me confidence and fear at the same time
But I like it,
This emotion is confusing and the scale is never balanced
This world is out of whack but you emit stability
It’s crazy…
I don’t know you but to lose you is like Shakespeare
A tragedy

I in no way want to portray her as perfection
But I swear given the time
I would come to love her imperfections
Help her reach her aspirations
**** I mean
All I really hope is that we can share this sensation genuinely
Because I’d rather her be something more than just a memory
As I sit here in solitude
I begin to muster the will to get up and follow through
Stomach the butterflies and this terror like stage freight
And reach out my hand to ask you out tonight
I guess the next move is on you…

[I can’t say I like her
but she reminds me of the happiness I want to obtain,
and the kind of person I want to share love with.]
