Honestly,
I love you.
Truthfully,
I need you.
Sincerely,
I want you.
Deeply,
I desire to marry you.

Everything started
A short time ago.
I thought
You were beautiful.
That’s all
I could know.

I saw you
Each week.
Your face,
I always did seek.
Then that weekend came—
All of it was spent with you.

Saturday night,
 October 2.
That’s the day
That was like any other,
Until I realized
That I loved you.

Now I’m obsessed.
Can’t get any rest.
I want to know
If you feel the same.
I want to stop
Playing this guessing game.

I like you.
I hope
You like me too.
I’d be devastated
If you didn’t
Feel like I do.

Now you are
About to leave
This place.
I am too.
So please, before it’s too late,
Love me too.

You’ll be the one
I’ll miss the most.
You’re the guy
I don’t want to never see.
I want to follow you
Wherever your life may lead. 

Honestly,
I love you.
Truthfully,
I need you.
Sincerely,
I want you.
Deeply,
I desire to marry you.  ©
