Impressing 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...
