Soar and Fly

Dear Joan, this is a little for me because what I might say may convince you to walk away Dear Joan, I'm afraid to admit I've been caught in the abyss of your eyes and bore witness to a gleam so bright five towns would be filled with light Dear Joan, I don't know why but once I let the words cascade from my lips attempt to be the me people don't see someone presses 'pause' to keep me silent as I form a smile and begin to look away Dear Joan, in imagination, I soar and fly when I hear your name Dear Joan, have mercy on me I am aware someone is already occupying the space in your heart but I am without proof he even exists so please will you make a temporary haven out of my arms Dear Joan, please tell me your thoughts, I've shared mine Dear Joan, please speak up or not at all know for sure my interests lie within you look into my eyes and see it's true Dear Joan
