Here I sit and ponder
How long it shall be
How long will I wonder?
Suddenly your bright blue eyes
Shine into my darker brown
Saving me before my chance comes to drown.
The kiss of life has never been so sweet,
The kiss of yours has only been sweeter
The bliss you give me radiates through every street
Ecstatic when your soft skin touches
My rough worked hands,
I can’t help but to long this forever
Beautiful red hair,
Soft tender lips,
The way you sway your smooth hips
I love everything about you and yourself
From the aura of your presence
To the red blush of your cheeks
You have a seamless soul,
The kind, helpful nature
Your playful tease.
I love you forever and always
I’ll take you for mine
Will you take me?
I just want your sweet and tender love.
I’ll take you for my wife,
My sister’s sister
Will you wed me?
