 The Ballad of Love’s Possibilities by Luis Gabriel

 

There once was a poor boy who loved a girl so,

He loved her so much and she would never know

How much this boy sincerely cared

The coins of his love were a treasure not to be shared.

 

He tried to be kind and he tried to be good

He tried to show her what he would

What he would do to make her happy as can be

Because when he was with her, he felt so free.

 

Yes, he loved truly and she would never know

Yes, he loved truly and she would never know

Ironically mysterious how love can grow

It’s so ironically mysterious how love can grow

 

He wrote her poems and he wrote her lines

Trying to express how much he could shine

How much he could be for her

And of how beautiful things could be, he was sure

 

But he knew that things must be taken slowly

If he was willing to wait then he would have the key

The key to her heart and the key to her soul

And together they would take time to learn and grow

 

Yes, he loved her truly and she would never know

Yes, he loved her truly and she would never know

Ironically mysterious how love can grow

It’s so ironically mysterious how love can grow

 

They could grow like saplings, verdant trees

Intertwining together in a still dance eternally

Modern day miracle in a cold world

An example for all those lonely boys and girls

 

All this and more was there out of his reach

The beauty of it all just took away his speech

He wondered if she knew the possibilities

Of just how beautiful this love could be

 

Yes, he loved her truly and maybe she would know

Yes, he loved her truly and maybe she would know

Maybe in time her love for him would grow

Maybe in time her love for him would grow
