Analysis of His presence
Three years down the line
My heart still chooses you
How i hate to admit
That you play a melodious song
In my dismal life
When will you discern
The love i have for you
For it sparks so bright
Like your face under the ardent sun
Your presence blithes me
I see you persistently
How i wish you can approach me
For i have no guts
Because the fear of rejection haunts me
Periodically
But i see there's a lass
That you keep gazing upon
There goes my chance
Of owning your heart
Shout out to her
For she triumphed
Till she dismirches
I shall remain destituted
