High Hopes

hey sexy lady your driving me so crazy
with them beautiful eyes 
i don't know what to say i just cant think
when i see you pass by
your looks and your attitude all blend in 
and it all looks divine
i just cant speak i don't know what to say
but you sparkling with shine
if you need a shoulder to come and Lean on
girl come to me ill make them all be gone
i might take initiative and make myself number one
number one on your mind if a friendship has begun
baby pleas turn around and smile at me
a second of your time will be all i need
baby pleas take a chance on me
i love the way you make my heart rhythm skip a beet
u give me trembling knees and cold feet
every smile given goes down on journal sheet
if i had a chance to speak what would i say?
how was your forecast may i brighten up your day?
i know it may sound corny maybe interesting
i know its not a phase and i know its not a fling
my words are for real,their not no scheme
and the thought of getting next to you is just a dream
but dreams are made reality with a goal and motivation
high hopes, time and strong dedication
you are what makes these words stand out
but for the moment I'm just a fly lost in the crowd

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
