Justin Aylsworth Poem
It's dumbfounding, I tell you.
How you did this so successfully,
yet at the same time, unintentionally.
It's just shocking, unbelievable.
You've managed not only to gain my attention,
but you have my heart racing and jumping,
just from me looking into your beautiful eyes.
I smile at the thought of you,
and you've taken my mind over.
In case that didn't say anything...
I've been smiling for a long time.
I just don't know how else to say it.
In fact, there is no other way to say it.
My dear, I think I'm falling for you.
And I will not lie.
I love this feeling you're giving me.
Since we confessed those little feelings,
I can't stop thinking about you.
I just want to see you.
I just want to hold you close.
I just want to be with you.
I just want to tell you...
But there...there is the snag.
I'm not the only one you feel something for.
I don't know what kind of chance I have.
I'm not sure you'll like the me you haven't seen.
But...ha, you have no idea how badly I want to try.
I'd take the risk of rejection,
I'd deal with the pain of it,
just to show you how I feel.
You've no idea my darling,
just how badly I want to tell you.
My heart screams, begs me,
"Just tell her! Just tell her!"
It's going to come to a point,
Where I can't hide it any longer.
You probably won't see this.
But my dear, on the chance that you do.
You've pretty much stolen my heart.
And I can't help but want to be with you.

Justin Aylsworth Poem
It's always different for everyone.
How we deal with problems, desires.
Just the little things that make life what it is.
I have a little routine I go through to sort mine out.
I get out of bed and go on with life.
Little things going on here and there.
You are there, my dear, adding to my desires constantly.
Yet with that desire, there is also a complication.
A small, simple thing, really.
Yet still, I have no easy solution. No actual plan.
So, I go on with it, ordering these desires and problems in my mind.
But once I go to sleep, that's where they take effect.
When I sleep I go into my own little world.
A world of lush green fields, and roses everywhere.
There, scattered about are my desires, limitless and free as could be.
Lately there has been an addition to these desires.
Yet...somehow it's held higher than the rest, as if on a hill in the center.
And there, under a beautiful, old oak tree...
I see you.
You watch me come to you, your beautiful eyes and smile upon me.
And once I'm there, a wonderful feeling takes over.
I feel content. Nothing could take this feeling, or take you away from me.
It feels...magnificent. Holding you close under that tree, the sun shining on us.
Your beautiful hair flows in the breeze, I smell your irresistible scent all around.
Your voice, like a choir of angels, even when you say the smallest things.
We sit for a while, a happiness that seems forever lasting.
But then...I wake up.
I lay still, wanting nothing more than to go back.
I get up, and I think, it's a desire that is in arms reach in this reality.
One day, the barrier will break, I'm sure.
And then nothing will separate this dream from reality.
