You are beautiful.
I'd rather spend a thousand days
Reveling in your light
Than waste away my life without you.

How could one resist?
A contagious laugh,
Such bright eyes;
How could I not fall for you?

However, I duck into the shadow's wake
And praise you from afar.
I cannot spell it out to you;
I do not want to fail.

Therefore, I shall await your call,
Your unwavering affectionate gaze,
To fall upon me.
I put our potential into your hands;
Please, do not keep me waiting.
