When first sight of you befalls these eyes, my emotions burn out of control.
My heart tells me to reach for you, but my mind still reasons no.
Do you even realize what you do to me? Do you even care?
With your hair of light and eyes so bright and skin a shade of pale.
You vixen of Irish lore.
Your touch, your smile, your sighs.
Oh how I long for them to be mine.
You consume my every waking thought and fulfill all my dreams.
With an unerring respect and tenderness, I humbly offer you my heart.
My body aches with deep desires, I need and want you near.
My love is a gentle and kind one,with no cause or reason to fear.
Your caring affections are all I seek, as I hold your image dear.
You knew of my desires from the beginning, right from the very start.
It’s always been an open book, this story of my heart.
Yet!All the while you deny me, what am I to do?
If you would only just give me a chance to love you I would show you that I could.
To be friend or lover that’s a decision that you alone must make.
There is a time to share in love’s surround, or be left to stand wanting in it’s wake
Our time is either now or never,one golden chance is all we get,
for if we choose to not act this day,we will forever reminisce in our regret.
So let me slip inside your heart and therein dwell forever.
To open your eyes to loving me one chance is all I need.
On the outside all appears calm and serene,inside my heart does plead.
To rush into your warm and inviting embrace,and therein lie for all-time, as if in a blissful dream.
Then for all the years that follow,we will share in those fond memories
of the times we held and the love we shared,and the passion that we felt for each other.
A chance is all I need.
A CHANCE
