Forever, In Love

he fell in love almost too late

So there's this boy
of course there is.
I don't know what to say
except that my heart is his.

No matter how hard I try
I can't move on.
My love is only for him
why can't he see that?

So everyday at school
I watch him fall in love.
She says she loves him
but her heart beats alone.

One day I find my courage
tell him I love him.
He laughs in my hopeful face
and I watch my heart shatter.

A few years later
I begin to walk the aisle.
He comes running to my side
and tells me he loves me.

I take his hand in mine
place it on my heart.
I look into his desperate eyes
and say, "Just in time."

He realizes his mistake
being blinded by lust.
I feel his heart inside
and finally I'm loved.

I gave him my heart
and he finally took it.
Our hearts interlocked
forever, in love.
