If you smile at me like that again
My lips will surely burst
Such joy you make me feel
A day lived in a single laugh

Yet if you disappointment me once more
My heart will irreparably break
Too much I’ve brushed under our floors
Another “oops” will bring these walls down

Sweetheart
Do you see how conflicted I am inside?
One moment I am beaming
The next I am enraged
Tomorrow we are separating
The following we’re engaged

Such love is perplexing
It nibbles away at the heart and brain
To stay is foolishness
But leaving would be more of a shame
