PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You got long brown locks

Eyes not quite like a hawk's

And you gotta have those glasses

'Cause if you didn't you'd cause crashes

Though you already crashed into my heart

Made it hard to be apart

But you weren't insured

So now my heart's interred

Buried under layers of love

When it used to be free as a dove

You always know how to make me smile

Little did you know that all the while

My brain was running, flowing like the Nile

Thinking of ideas, putting them in a pile

Of how to convince you that I'm worth your while

But I knew none of it would ever work

You'd never be convinced of my perks

So I tried to give the idea a rest

Put my feelings to the test

I tried to avert my attention

But in the end there was too much tension

My heart pulled harder than my mind

I looked in your eyes but there was nothing to find

No clues, no treasure map

To feelings that would fill this gap

To think that this all started from one mishap

We were backstage, the show was a bore

When someone yelled, “Shut and Bar the Door!”
