I cannot help the fact that I am drawn to you
Unbeknownst to me, I look for your eyes across the room in a sea of people
Willingly, I fall for your smile and give in to your wiles
I need not be a fortune teller, neither soothsayer, nor a seer to tell me when you are near
I need only my mouth to lift and form a smile to determine your presence
Ever so delighted to feel you close
To hold you in my arms, what joy!
You are the essence of my happiness
A crook, a cranny or a bubbling pool will only have me chuckling like a fool
For I remember only your smile, your laugh
And I promise to keep that in my heart for always
When your demons play with mine, I feel as if everything is just right
Neither evil nor good, just fun and content
Oh how will I pine, my sweet?
For such a loss, unbearable
Your absence, irrevocable
Only for you will I admit my soul’s lament
For when we kiss our last kiss
And when you smile your last smile for me
And when I feel the warmth of your hand for one last time
I will think about your eyes
And your amazing character
I will look back at the moments that were outrageous
And the moments of comfortable silence
The moments of easy laughter
And the moments of peace I found in your arms
And I will think of how much I love you
And how much the scent of vanilla will remind me of you
And how we aren’t meant to be
