Developmental Love

Every night, I lie awake

Thinking of you

My emotions making tears break

Almost nightly, it's true

Your beauty is imprinted

An image in my mind

And all my emotions, unlimited

For you are very kind

You remind me of love

And for that I share

My lonely white dove

Because, for you, I care

Let us move forward

Let me make the first step

So that I can move onward

And that way I'm prepped

I truly love you

Though love is a strong word

It's the only one for the situation, true

And my words are slurred

As my love makes me "drunk"

As you begin to listen

I'm really no punk

As my love begins to glisten

Love me the same

I'm an animal you can tame

For you my love stands

My words echo, longing

And my heart rests in your hands

With your voice, singing

My heart lapping in the commands

And you voice, ringing

People tell me I'm good

They say I'm not bad

But I'm misunderstood

And that makes me sad

Because, understand, they could

If, listen, they had

I know she does

And my heart punds

As I listen because

Her words are lovely sounds

Just don't leave me

I love your voice

As it be

I have a choice

So  now I ask

Will you give me a chance

Or should I empty a flask

Before you spear me with a lance

I care for you
I truly love you

And you know it's true
