this is the most
honest
emotion I have ever felt
in my short life.
here am I
throwing my hands up
in defeat
...I don't know what to do
about how I feel about you.
what can I say?
what words would express the emotion
truly enough
[I'm
t o n g u e - t i e d
and
lost for fragments of sentences
at the thought of you]
or do I simply remain silent
as you sit there
thinking not of me
but of your life
filled with
complicated things
and
simple pleasures
how desperately I am
[wishing never saved this damsel from her distress
as she waited for her prince in her wedding dress]
hoping
simply hoping
against hope
that you
stare into the sky
at the stars burning against the blue-black expanse
and think of my name
as I close my eyes
and let my heart call yours.



I want to be yours.
