I think I love you <br />Isn’t that a stupid thing to say? <br />But I think I love you <br />Just from the words on the page <br /> <br />I draw her face in my mind <br />Paint it in charcoal grey <br />The picture of my fantasy <br />Seeing what I wish to be <br /> <br />There’s no way to really know <br />If she’s as lovely as I say <br />It doesn’t matter though <br />Beauty for my eyes only <br /> <br />I want her in the darkness <br />These thoughts I must belay <br />To hold her, kiss her <br />She may not be real <br /> <br />It really doesn’t matter <br />She’s with me everyday <br />Only in my mind <br />Painted illusion of desire <br /> <br />When I find out how far apart <br />Reality is from fiction- touche’ <br />I’ve always known better <br />This is no help, I say <br /> <br />In this now, I see her clear <br />The perfect women this day <br />I believe all things are possible <br />For this moment alone <br /> <br />Tomorrow will come <br />And I will stay <br />Holding fast to the dream <br />Drifting like purple haze <br /> <br />I doubt she knows it <br />She holds me in her sway <br />My companion, my lover <br />All from words on the page<br /><br />Celt Merlyn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/words-on-the-page/
