True Love
T he only thing she ever did was to be there when he needed,
R emoving all of the barriers that left him weary and defeated.
U nrequited love should not be attempted by the faint of heart,
E very ounce she’d give happily if only she could play the part.
L onging looks from across the room she’d sneak a little peek,
O nce he returned her gaze and it made her knees grow week.
V ague inferences and unclear signals fill her spinning head
E vading all possibility of rejection by ever asking what he said.
