Long Love Letter

I wrote my love a poem
but the words were much too big.
Then tried to say I loved her
as it went on like a jig.

I talked about the skyline
and how the red sun set.
Compared her eyes to pools
and things I'd not seen yet.

I opened up my heart
to tell her how I feel.
And then I rambled on
and on over the hill.

I finished with I love you
that ended in her name.
Then waited for an answer.
when this is how it came...

I Do Too
