Not Yet

I love the way

Her smile keeps them at bay;

The darkest rooms

The gloomiest days

The endless nights

She never ceases to amaze

I love the way

She knows just what to say;

When I’m lonely

When I frown

When the world

Seems upside down

I love the way

She turns night to day;

With her laughter

With her smarts

With her words

They captivate my heart

I love the way

She makes me want to stay;

Treat her right

Treat her well

Treat her like my Queen

Oh, can’t you tell?

She makes my heart flutter

She makes me swoon

But be patient, dear self

I’m sure you’ll meet her soon
