My Fair Sadie
My fair Sadie,
How to express my love for thee,
I do not know.
But to the stars and beyond I will go
To prove to you
That my love is true.
My fair Sadie, I love you so.
You are the doe
Who has stolen my heart from me.
Don’t you see,
My heart is torn
For I have born
A love
Upon the dove
Full of beauty that is thine.
A beauty that shall always shine
Oh, so bright
In the dark of the night.
My love for you
Is oh, so true.
It burns inside
As I try to hide
From your everlasting beauty.
For you see,
I can hide it no more
I have eyes for
None but you,
To whom ill always be true,
My beautiful Sadie,
Is it too much for me
To ask you to be mine, forever.
I will never
Stop waiting for you
For my love is true,
As true as a love can be.
So you see,
I will never stop waiting
For you to bring
My heart home.
I know some
People would say
It’s crazy to be this way.
And this is my reply,
I always try
To follow the heart which is wiser
Than I could ever
Wish to be.
For you see,
Only the heart can recognize true love
And when I see you, my dove,
My heart races
As it is put through its pace.
As my mind struggles to maintain thought,
And my eyes get caught
By your everlasting beauty
My dear, sweet Sadie.
This poem is about a girl I used to know. i had a crush on her and my inexperienced heart
mistook this crush for true love. Though I did not know it at that time. I hope you
enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it.
