Whom I Can Barely See

The one off in the distance
Whom I can barely see
The one off in the distance
Will one day marry me

Though he doesn't know it yet
I assure you, he soon will
Though he doesn't know it yet
His heart soon I will fill

He is the heart to my soul
Soon he will know
He is the heart to my soul
But for him I'll take it slow

Though he doesn't know it yet
He will hold me tight
Though he doesn't know it yet
He will kiss me good-night

The one off in the distance
Whom I can barely see
The one off in the distance
Will one day marry me

A beautiful poem, filled with longing for the one "Whom I can barely see." Hope he comes into view soon, Jen!
