I CAN SCRIBBLE TOO!

Sweet girl, I can scribble too These trembling lines, they’re all for you My heart’s racing, skipping time And I can’t tell if this is yours or mine I think I might... I’m almost sure... This feeling’s louder than before Sweet girl, you take my breath away Chase these cloudy blues away Is this real, or just some clever ruse? Am I the one... or just your muse? Sweet girl, don’t keep me confused 'Cause I’m falling, falling for you Can simple words break through the haze? You once said love lights up the maze Can your arms reach past the page? Could we be more than a poet’s stage? Just the thought… Of what you feel Has got me reeling — now and until Sweet girl, you take my breath away Chase these cloudy blues away Is this real, or just some clever ruse? Am I the one... or just your muse? Sweet girl, don’t keep me confused 'Cause I’m falling, falling for you I’ve penned a thousand dreams before But this one shakes me to the core If this is more than ink and air Then say it now — I’ll meet you there I can scribble too… but this is true This heart won’t lie, it’s breaking through If you feel it too, then take my hand Let’s draw a love we understand Sweet girl, you take my breath away Chase these cloudy blues away Now I know — no ruse, no excuse It’s not a dream, it’s not a muse Sweet girl, you lit the fuse And I’m falling, falling... in love with you! Note: This is written as a song about a guy who meets a girl through their poetry. On paper their chemistry is strong.. but is it wrong, to think just maybe there's more here than just a pen.. what then? Well I guess what they say is true, and if it is a won't be blue.. but either way, can't a guy dream :)

I love every element of this poem, from the theme, feel, the writing, repeated verse ... I don't know whether or not he gave her these words via whatever means, but he spilled his feel in confident, not tentative, lines and held back nothing to protect himself should he be denied. He was brave enough to be authentic. If they discuss poems, they should have a vibe about the other's feelings, one can tell, usually, when someone is in to them. Have I talked to much?? CayCay
