The Conception of My Affection

My eyes
they saw you
fine as can be
with features a
goddess would own

I tried to
compare you
with others I see
but naturally you
stood alone

I scattered
your picture well
in my heart so
your face was all
it could see

I later
discovered that
this was the
start of a wonderful
feeling in me

I’ve pondered
the thought of
being forever with
you the one I
endear

I strongly
believe we can
be together with
something deep
and sincere

I feel at
home when in
your arms, I
never want to
leave

For wrapped
up in your
alluring charm,
I’ll always want
to be
