He was always there
Always watching over her
Yet she never knew at all
That she was even alive
He was poor; she had fur
He loved her with all his heart
He would have given up the world
Just to let her know he cared so much
But she would never talk to him
He had no car; she could travel the world
Although he tried with everything he had
He could never give her that rose
Long stemmed and crimson red rose
He could never talk to her quite long enough
He had few friends; she had no foes
So he left it on her doorstep with a note
“I loved you for so long and you never even knew,
Just wanted to let you know I am here for you
That I truly care and am so devoted to you”
He waited for a reply; for the first time her heart flew
She knocked upon his door that very night,
“I have never heard such beautiful words in my life,
I envied you for so long, you have strength,
You have intelligence, and so much patience, I love you.”
He proposed, and she said, “Yes I’ll be your wife”
