My soul forms the words, My heart ensnares them, Locking them in its warm chambers, My mind knows these words, And my fingers write these words, Yet my lips, The dastardly things They find no valor, And can not form the words.
How is it that I can feel these words, With so much hope and admiration Just for you, Yet my lips can not speak them To tell you Of your shy smile And your crystal eyes? I am enamored by you, By your words and your laughter.
You leave me breathless, As the air leaps out of my mouth, Twirling and bowing to your charms, Enchanted by your congeniality. Your face is imprinted in my mind Never leaving, Never fading. Your smile warming my heart, And your eyes entrancing my soul.
I wish I could form my feelings Into articulate words Of love and wonder And tell you of my feelings, Let you know of my aspiration To be held securely in your arms, Where I long to be, Sitting serenely with you, Basking in the sweet resonance of stillness.
But I know that wish is unattainable, Far out of my reach, Yet I admire you still, Yearning that one day you'll notice me As more than just a girl But as a young woman Whose heart you've whisked away Into the perpetual sky, Floating along the clouds.
And everyday I linger Hoping for some acknowledgment, A fleeting look or a petite hello. Perhaps to even hear you speak my name Would bring warmth to my heart And joy to my days As I wait for you to discern That I, quietly, Admire you.
(2)The sky seems so much blacker than all the other nights Bringing a deeper chill which reaches my bones The stars are scattered Sparkling, shining, shaping the world I can’t see anything else but you, Anything but you and the stars I lay down, my head on the orange and red fallen leaves Although they all look the same in the dark I wonder if you care we are laying on the ground Tiny goose bumps dance along my arms and legs I wonder why you haven’t moved closer yet I wonder if you don’t want to be there Laying on the leaves, in the coolness of the dark Looking at the stars, with me I think I’m thinking too much, I think that... You move closer Deep breath, deep breath... My hand feels so small in yours, Small but safe, safe and warm I could fall asleep with my head on your shoulder We say nothing I remember the stars, they are still sparkling back at us I’ll always remember them now
