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.
