Innocence of Young Love

Each day I awake
My heart's ready for take

It's no longer trapped
And  instead completely rapt
With love for him 
Which isn't a whim

It's captivated my soul
And helps me feel whole
I can't wait to say hi
Still feeling a little shy

I'm so overpowered 
And becoming froward 
I cannot be tamed
Until I am claimed

By the secret one
Who's web has spun
Which has captured me
I don’t want to be free

Now it’s time to ‘sleep’
Which makes my heart leap
But I keep a cool head
Next to him in bed
