Don'T Ask My Daughter, If I'Ll Marry You

Hey, I found a new girlfriend---
very attractive, sexy and intelligent;
she has a strong sense of humor. 

Not just my assumption, but this is
what I see of her;
this lady becomes my life’s absolute

fixation; Gee, I’m in love, again;
yes, I missed her yesterday, and
I am missing her now.

She loves me. Indeed,
she brings happiness and comfort 
to me; definitely, I’ll marry her, but

there’s a problem, she is not alone
in my heart, there’s Nitz, who deeply loves me; 
a jealous angel, by day and by night.

Of course, I love her, too. And,
I can’t break her heart, for she’s just seven
and not yet fully recovered from our loss.
