The Tale of Two

A reflection of a great poet, I've seen every time I looked at you, so seductive your voice hypnotised me, I'd always look at you and wonder, travelled back so that I could see if this was really me, Remember how we met? Over a piece of paper We were the only ones left Like innocent teens falling in love For the first time We both rushed to it Pulled it on both sides and it stuck Without a choice we looked Straight into our eyes Gazed like having a first kiss I smiled, you reflected it Like Shakespeare's first sight We walked on stanzas And jumped back to reality We found ourselves holding hands Like girls catch up Our conversation flowed So beautiful you were As time went by I found myself loving you Unfortunately you couldn't Believed I could try harder But I was at my peak And you kept on reflecting The "I know you can do better" Reaction on my way of loving Not knowing what to do I was consistent Appeared unserious to you Reflection of a great poet I've seen in your eyes Remember how we met? Over a piece of paper

This poem appealed to my poetic side, and my love for this site, in particular, as most of my new friends have met me over a piece of paper. Almost all of them. Thank you for writing this one!
