Tried

Oh, how I tried to keep from falling.
My heart wouldn't let my mind stop me.
And oh, how I tried to keep from calling.
But, my heart doesn't seem to hear my plea.

If you wonder how long I will love you,
Or how long will my heart be so true?
For forever and always, I will love you.
My heart will always belong to just you. 

I send you my poems and call you each night.
I come to you and our loving always feels so right.
I dream of being there with you all of the time,
My mind asks, will you ever be mine?

Will you ever love me? My heart thinks you might
Open your heart someday when the time is right.
Until then, I will just keep on loving you,
My mind tried hard not to, my heart says I do.
