Crumbled papers 
Of poems about you 
Written with words 
That will never come true 
 
Written in ink 
That will never fade away 
The hopeful words 
I wish I could say 
 
Hands still shaking 
As I continue to write 
Scribbled letters 
Of black and white 
 
Eager to tell you 
How I feel 
Wishing I could prove 
My love is real |
