Explaining Love

Every time I see you my heart goes from steady to fast, Hoping to stop time so every moment with you could last. Or better yet I wish that I could visit the past, To prevent my broken heart from ever being in a cast. You're the beautiful angel God sent from above, And I'm here to talk to you about a thing called love. See love isn't at the end of the rainbow with pots of gold and a map, It isn't easily learned with definitions intact, And while I can stand here and forever defend, My case and say our love will never come to an end, I'm no genius on it I can only pretend, For love is an emotion I don't comprehend. It's usually a thing between women and men, And often times we see it fail again and again. The things that I've been through have been expressed through this pen. But most importantly I've been able to learn, That being patient and standing waiting your turn, Isn't the thing to do at all, You've got to risk to find the one, Who compares to none, wants to have fun, Will always be there and will always love you a ton. Hopefully one day I just might, Be the one to steal your heart and send it into flight, Because a girl like you is well worth the fight. Your beauty is contagious just like the flu, I can only hope my love for you will be too.
