A Lady Untamed

Sit back and wait like a lady? A lady I remain while untamed I tell you I like you Without shame I pursue you Something I will not wait on line to do Flattering you, appreciating your beautiful From the outside to within then back again Your beauty a loop I want to wrap myself in It should be sin that I'm the first to say this to you I want to date you Oh is that too forward? I'm gallant Filled with courage I will speak what I mean freely Even if my gender says I'm confusing the roles and have to wait till you approach me I see what I like Now I'm a lion in heat You entertain it but hesitant I see Your gorgeousness makes lines blurry Difficult to read between So if you don't want me you must make mention of that I will not acquiesce To the beat of this rhythm My magnificence has dimensions Go too slow and you'll miss some I'd gladly however move on if the radiance of my light is just too bright For many it will be But you never said a thing anti reciprocal to my very bold pursuit of you Instead you painted me the color fool And put me on display Instead of extending Grace and allowing me to walk away with my face You tuck some pain in the belt at my waist and steal my pride in exchange
