Impossible, Maybe

Impossible, maybe, but ever-true:
My dear, I'm still in love with you.
With the way you glimmer in the halls,
With your glowing cheeks, just like a doll's,
With it all.
Impossible, maybe, but ever-true,
My dear, I'm still in love with you.

Impossible, maybe, but ever-mine:
Your memory in me, crystalline
How that night we spent, with distance kept
Was a call for kismet to accept
Tears unwept.
Impossible, maybe, but ever-mine:
Your memory in me, crystalline.

Impossible, maybe, but ever-there:
My hope for us still hangs, midair.
And so I: sit here, wait, am true
Persistent as the morning dew
I love you.

Impossible, maybe
But ever-true
My dear,
I'm still
in love
with you.
