Attempt

FINAL

Your words

on the pages

written for me

are of beauty.



Silently,

ever so quietly

do they pound.



Can you not see

the exaltation

you've thrown

in my direction?



Where on this page

the structure similar,

because I long

to become like you



Your greatness,

bashful in my heart.

These rosy cheeks

you cannot see.



When those words

are seeped from

your creased lips

they are not of age.



I am in awe and my heart,

unseen to you,

paces

just a fragment faster.



but you cannot know.



For if you knew

I would be giving in

to your sweet words

of attempt.



My eyes,

like stone

set heavy,

upon your words

upon your feelings.



It is not your words,

alas it is the meaning.

My uncritical smiles,

I nigh naive....



But quietly,

I read the words.

My heart paces

just a little faster.

Your greatness,

These rosy cheeks
you cannot see.

When thoes words
are seeped from
your creased lips
they are not of age.
