Can I Impress You

As I sit at 
my table
Hoping to 
write
Words fail 
me
Yet, my 
thoughts 
teem
Not a bit a 
one right
I am 
unable...

I wish to 
express an 
impress...

There was 
nothing 
wrong
Wrong 
with my 
heart.
As wrong 
as it is
Until you 
came 
A strange 
flame 
Singed my 
soul
Like a 
firing dart
It was a 
love wrong.

I wish an 
expressive 
impress
I am 
unable...

My heart is 
heavy
As of the 
debt of a 
huge levy.
My soft 
spot 
indulge a 
pain
The run of 
a train on 
rail.

I wish an 
express 
impress
But I sell 
you my 
stress.

I can't 
but...
