Poem
I want to say that I love you But each time I try to I remember that... I am just a girl and what you want is a lady, a woman Someone who will bear you an army of strong men One after the other Tall strong and handsome Not forgetting extreemly intelligent Who will all carry through your name For many days and years the same. I am just a simple calculation Maybe addition, maybe subtraction, and there, you have me solved Not the challenge that you want That will rob you of your peace until Eureka point And show just how intelligent you can be... No I am not that I am as easy as the blink of an eye Or the letting out of a sigh And that, that is not good enough for you. I want to tell you that I love you But every time I try to I remember... Love is not for the likes of us Love is for them that have money and fame Those that have a title to their name Like Mr and Ms and Doctor or Priest But poor paupers like us Who are noted by their odours and the sight of our rags Which we cherish with our lives because they are all we have We are not made for love. We just wait and pounce on the slightest opportunity that presents himself Because he might just be the last The last old man in the land that wants an addition to his troop of wives Otherwise we just end up alone Live and grow old And be marked dangerous and evil As says clearly, the custom. I really wanted to tell you that I loved you I really did But then just as I wanted to tell you I remebered that... You are way beyond my league beyond my level beyond my reach That even with the strongest native medicine Love portions and all You could never look at me the way you do the daughter of the king. You are almost as scarce as the fragments of my imagination There but intangible You are the work of all the gods combined Perfect in every aspect and view Not meant to be tainted by the dirt that is me. You probably do not even know that I exist So I shall keep it that way lest lightning strikes me Hide the memories and thoughts of you at the back of my head so that I can always have you wherever I am. I love you But then again 'I' and 'You' can never make 'We' There are already too many letters to begin with None of which is 'W' or 'E' One with two and one with three Similar but different completely. You and I are as seperate as the two ears on our heads Never will they meet Never will they greet Never will they be at one point at the same time Never will they fall in love and become one Because then there would be no balance The head would not be as beautiful Most probably one ear will have to move and thus lose its functioning And that can never be So is the same for the two of us I love you But 'You' and 'I' Can never make 'we' For starters there are too many letters already...
