One Look At You

For one look at you I would swim the 7 seas,

For one glimpse I would vacate all of me,

Leave my body soulless and bare,

For my soul to be with you everywhere,

 

I do not say this idly,

For I do not feel this mildly,

But for one look at you,

There is nothing I wouldn’t do.

 

For one look at you I would walk a million highways,

For one glimpse would send my heart to clog the skyways,

I have no reservations on these feelings that I feel

There is no hesitation to say that they are real.

 

I do not say this idly,

For I do not feel this mildly,

But for one look at you,

There is nothing I wouldn’t do.

  

I'll sit on the sidelines and watch your life go by,

I'll waste my own away for a little treat for the eyes,

And one day you may notice me always hanging round,

Come by and say hello help my courage to be found.

 

But for now I will sit idly,

Still not feeling this mildly,

But for one look at you,

There is nothing I won’t do.

Very full of passion, but pent up passion. A feeling of strong love, but fear of not having this love completely keep the charater at bay. They would brave the greatest feats, except full disclosure, which can be the hardest of all. Definately well done! The last stanza brings everything together brilliantly!

I read this before as you know, and as I read it again I really enjoy the edit you made, I realized what part you took out and i can assure you it packs more of a punch this way, without that little explanation that was there before. Very nice write.
