The Proposal
I tried not to love you
but I failed miserably
I tried not to kiss you
but when you kissed me
for the very first time;
when I felt your lips gently
brushing up against mine
they rendered me helpless.
I tried hard to hide my emotions
but not a tear I cried did you not
wipe from my eyes.
I tried to act proud and thought
I didn't need anyone
that I was happy with my life
that's when you got
down on one knee looked me in
the eyes placed a ring on my finger
and soon after became the one true love
of my life....
