Allow Me
Allow me the pleasure
Of being the one
Who still gets to you
Even under the pressure.
Allow me to be
One of the people
In your life
Whose words you may cite a friendly gesture.
Allow me the liberty
To be young and free, with you
Walking graced in our leisure
We’d hold hands; winds scatter and breeze through.
Allow me to write
A poem about you
Just you!
I'll versify you in my mind’s eye and pen you out
With the most beautiful words so that in spoken word I can finally recite:
I love you.
