About a wonderful girl I know
As I do every day
Since I met her.
But today’s thoughts were
Not the same as usual.
You see, I like her
And I want to be with her,
But I do not know how
To tell someone these things that
I’ve known for but a week,
And have never met in person.
Then it hit me,
You tell her like this:

Before I met you,
My life was lonely.
Before I met you,
I prayed to meet someone,
That would be a great wife
For me one day;
And for someone who
Would bring happiness
Into my life.
And after I met you,
I felt that I could not
Let you get away.
After I met you,
I felt my search
Was complete.
Am I wrong to say,
That I like you?
Am I wrong to say,
That I want to be with you?
Perhaps,
But only because
Of the little time I’ve known you.
One may say this is desperation,
Because of all the loneliness
That I don’t want.
This is not desperation.
This is knowing a good thing,
When one sees it,
And I believe,
You are my good thing.
But don’t get scared.
Don’t run away.
You are like me,
In so many ways.
And because of this,
I feel I can tell you this.
But if I was wrong,
Then let me know.
Perhaps one day,
I’ll finally know
If what I longed for with you
Is what is really in His plan
For me.

How to tell you

I really like your poem.

Fact is there was someone once I felt about like this. My life and his life though seemed to go in different directions. He was someone I worked for. When I left my job and moved away we finally talked about it.

He drove over 700 miles with his children just to come and see me. Now, he is my husband, best friend, and lover. What more can I say!

Your poem is touching!
