As you come over
My heart beats faster,
Not a soul have I told;
I fear being that bold

Your beautiful eyes
They simply make my voice paralyzed
I want to talk,
Let’s go for a walk

My sister must follow of course,
And now I feel brave as a horse
But the feeling fades fast
Should’ve known it wouldn’t last.

Oh my God! What to do?
Should I just shout it, “I LOVE YOU!”?
No, most definitely not
It won’t show my truest thought.

How can I say it?
There’s only a day left
Can it go just bit by bit?
You’re act is a perfect theft.

Another chance has passed away,
Gone again I begin to pray.

“Oh! Dear God!
Dost thou show me no mercy?!
Why dost thou cause me to suffer?
What day must I wait ‘til?
How far the journey
‘Till I meet her again?”

Suddenly it comes!
The solution is here!
Writing you a poem
Which you just might hold dear.
