So what is it I’m feeling now
With my skin aglow and heart aflutter
I’ve never felt quite like this, about someone
who wasn’t created by a writer

This is a new experience
One I’m scared to embrace
Change can have two outcomes
I don’t want to end up a charity case

I think I’d rather stick to my poems
Than chance a broken heart
Words have been enough thus far
Why should I break us apart?

I’m terrified of becoming
One of those ditsy, boy-crazed babes
But I find my world is different
Taken over by a brand new shade

Maybe I’ll take the risk then
What harm could it really do?
Who knows, if I’m lucky
Maybe he’ll like poems too
