How lonesome and heartbreaking
To fall so deep in love
With someone so undeserving of
An open heart that is breaking.
This fulfilling but shifty feeling
That reaches far above
The expectations of young love
Far more overpowering.
A 300 year old affair
That leaves me wondering
And in revelation of prayer,
Hoping for a love so overwhelming.
But, I might as well not dare
To think I deserve such a beautiful
Fledgling.
