To You

I wrote 3 words
To show you I miss you 
I wrote 3 more
To let you know how I feel 

At the realisation 
Of competition 
I figured this letter 
Needs a distinction 
Padorn my insecurity 
These pages go up to twenty 

Dear, I don't know if am there yet 
Still I say it 
Hoping mutual 
It will soon be 
Hold your heart 
swallow your pride 
And let me take you 
Through a journey of hearts 

I didn't come riding a stallion 
Just my dirty feet 
Am no Prince Charming 
But Charming you will see 

Maybe I came a little hard on you 
But clarity is all I seek 
See, I've been feeling 
This way for ages 
Words boiling down my chest 
So nauseating 
Oh! What an ache 
Will you let me take you 
Or break
