My darling, my oh my dearest sweet darling,
You rush by, a smile plastered on your sweet lips
The shine that makes your eyes twinkle like stars at the night sky
The sound of your voice, a music to one's ears
The light in your steps, a whisper of a wonderful melody
The innocence in you, a seduction at its finest
The words you utter, attracts and catches even a stranger
You intimidate and give, gaining anyone's respect
Your anger----beautiful and dangerous like a disaster
Yet, you'll never know and will never see
That there's someone watching your back, waiting
Because as much as you don't give up----I'll stay here and do the same
Following you as you walk to him, silently loving
But this will stay behind, lingering around for you to hear
A shadow behind your steps,
A wishful dreamer of a promise of a lifetime
Your loving, second best
