Red heart does flips 
I fell in love
No chart for the trips
Heart flies like dove

Imagine candy lips
Appealing like lavender
There’s no written script 
Feeling acting like scavenger 

Want to be boisterous 
Yet I shrink inside
At your joyful touch
And your emerald eyes

Why I’ll go home
And secretly write
Boldest love poem
As if was never shy

I practice my words
Hoping that I’ll remain
Unlike timid bird
When I see you again no shame

That maybe by accident 
Somehow I’ll train my brain
To woo you so smooth so cool
That I win your heart so tame

Maybe by accident possibly 
I find out you really like me
That we are more alike indeed
Than we are different meant to be

I find a pair of interesting lines here: "There's no written script" ... and ... "Why I'll go home and secretly write..." So, if there's no written script, why are you writing?! ~ Mr. Go-with-the-Flow
