Analysis of She
Getting to know her, was such a treat.
Endlessly I love her, there is no peak.
Never will she know, just how far I'd go.
I never knew, did she love me, yes or no?
Today she is not here, has it been a year?
And on my heart, is a stain of pain and fear.
And one day I hope she returns to my life.
Not as we were, mired in strife.
Nothing less than to be my wife.
Bitter; this end won't mend us.
Only loving and caring, until we are dust.
Yearning for your tender touch.
Do you know, if you believe, so much;
Much love you could know.
Candles surround us in the snow.
Before we kiss and embrace our fate.
Ringing wedding bells and rings, would be so great.
Intertwining our lives into a unity.
Delveing into endless possibilities.
Ending up in love forever, if you promise.
