Dan and Shelley

Before I knew you I had sworn
I would never fall for someone.
Why do that to myself again?
Far better to be alone.
Though, I never wanted
for it to be just me.
Who really wants that?
Nobody really, that I believe.

So I lied and said
it would be all right.
Love could never be mine,
try and try as I might.
Too much this.
Too little that.
Far too stubborn
to ever give up on a fight.

I fell for you easily,
though I didn’t let it show.
I was afraid you would
leave, if you should know.
But then, slowly at first,
we both started to drop hints.
I think it was something
that we both could sense.

Well now, now I’m hopelessly
so far in love with you.
I’m forever and always yours,
but that you already knew.
My Sweet Dan,
you are the only one I want,
my only forever,
my true love that I have sought.

My dear Shelley
My one true love
You truly must be
Sent from above

You have my heart
And my soul to
You have it all
I belong to you

There are no words
Which can explain
The love I feel
It’s all in vain

For words alone
Cannot convey
They all fall short
Of what I want to say

I wish to say
I love you dear
With all I am
And that’s sincere

You truly mean
So much to me
For it is with you
That I want to be

So ’til the day
We are as one
My love will grow
And not be undone

For nothing can change
How I feel inside
About you my dear
Not even if I tried

I love you Shelley
For that’s a fact
And always will
There’s nothing you lack
