Sappy adolescence

Circa March 1994

Why do I bother you
with silly thoughts of my love again
For in my bid to win your heart
I may just lose my friend

Bemoaning the fact
that I'm only able
to eat the scraps from your floor
while others sit at your table

Yet content I am
to but lie at your feet
with hopes that in time
life will turn bitter to sweet

Patiently, waiting for 2 years
ready to wait 3 more
but the rules to this game keep changing
Nothing is for sure

I could be wasting my time
that's a chance I'll have to take
Silently enduring everything
It's a promise I won't break

They say patience is a virtue
that's hard to understand
Sometimes it's like the beaches
but sometimes its an hour glass with sand

I'm trying to flatter and win you
of this I can't lie
But there's more to me than flowering words
to find out just give me a try

Just see what i've to offer
if with me you can endure
cause I've already decided on you my dear
I've made up my mind for sure

But to be perfectly honest
it frightens me to feel this way
Yet when I gaze into your eyes
to my surprise I wish for the feelings to stay
