"The winds so great,
The rains so wet,
The sun has set,
Its dark and late.
I see her smile
From a mile
She has such style
She flows like Nile
She laughs so bright
Skin so white
In this dark night
She glows, a light
Smile so wide
Words like tide
She moves and slides
In a graceful glide
Oh! She is beauty
So very pretty
In awe is the city.
But one thing is a pity
I talk of one
I know she's known
Although she is gone
And left me alone
I write these words
And give the birds
To lift upwards
The heavens towards,
To my one and only love."
" He wrote all day
Of my beauty and sway
But never did say
Never once, no, nay
The He loved me so
Watched me come and go
To and fro
Everyday and more
He longed to stand
To ask for my hand
For a wedding so grand
By the seas and sand
Me in a flowing gown
Him tan and brown
Holding hands, no frown
Far from every town
I felt what he did
Knew what he hid
But i was a fool indeed
Believing I was forbid
To talk to him
To console him
To go tell him
I loved none but him
I hated his fear
Waited to hear
Three words so meer
Each year after year
He too thought me out of his reach
For my beauty was so rich
I would've lived in a ditch
Cleaned, cooked and stitched
Had he asked me once
I would've laughed and danced
With joy i would've bounced
Alas we had no chance.
For He couldn't voice
The words of his choice
So with letters we rejoice,
Our feelings we voice.
Even though it's too late
I'm inside heavens gate
Everyday I wait
In this incomplete state,
For my one and only love."
