My One and Only Love

My love for you is so great, 
my heart melts for you night and day
Time drags on when your away,



Your beauty is great,
My mind wanders 'til I see you,
Thinking about you is all I do , all i need
While waiting for the moment, for you to say "I do."


The moment when we take the lead, take the lead on life
When the moment comes you’ll be my wife 
Together until the day we die 
You’ll always be the apple of my eye.
My arms around your shoulder 
Then your hand comes to mine as its holder
I still remember the day we met 

I remember the day you told me it was, me you liked
I had a feeling like I had just striked
Striked ten pins in bowling 
And it took a few months afterward for the relationship to get rolling
But then I finally asked you out
The feeling after that was a feeling like i had just caught the biggest trout
The first kiss
Hesitant to do it at first in case i might miss
I go for the cheek first afraid of what you will think
I am afraid that my face might go pink
Then eventually I get over those feelings
I think “damn my pride”
I get over my fear and go for the ride

Then there was our first public display of affection
Then, at that moment I really felt a connection
Though then I was not at all involved
I really felt your loves call

My sweetheart 
My baby girl 
My pookie 
My love
My girlfriend
My Samantha 
Samantha forever

Head Over Heels comes to mind, This is my first reading... I see there are more (versions?) 'My One & Only Love' poems under your name... I'll be looking to read them, 1st to see if you are always writting 'bout Sam., 2nd to see how your piece progressed. I guess we all edit & revise; did you notice the two versions of 'A LEAF' the 2nd one I posted is my original, which had been a year in the brain and all over paper 'til it sounded right. The 1st copy I put up was for P-a-tree-soop only.
