An Insecure Proclamation of Love
Shall I speak of the’ in flattering verse?
Or will the words cause your lips to purse?
For these attributes that you display
Stir affection my heart must obey
As every time your smile gleams
With my eyes your joy is seen
And with each laugh, your inner child shows
So with the sound my desire goes
And when this child’s dramatic fury throws
My amusement with her grows
Though my levity, you appreciate not
It’s the best way to show my love I’ve got.
For from my ears my words do come
As it is your mouth they spawn from
But my agitation dares not persist
For your tears I’d loath assist
But when your tears do freely flow
To my arms I wish you’d go
So that I might cast your tears away
And be forever your hero for that day
And if in my arms you should wish to dwell
My restless heart your warmth would quell
For my desire I am too weak
But together, yours we will seek.
