Hopelessly in Love

I think of you every morning,

Each and every day that I start;

Caring not for what this might bring,

Hopelessly in love, I gave you my heart;

Through your fingers, exquisite yet careless,

My love struck heart, it slipped, it fell;

It broke, shattered into pieces so formless,

Count of which I couldn't tell;

So I picked up every piece, every bit,

Consequences of my lovely affair;

Perhaps I should've pasted a note on it,

Clearly saying 'handle with care';

Sewed it, glued it, all the pieces intricately tiled,

I placed it, back upon your palm;

You let it go like an unsure child,

No guilt whatsoever, no regret, no qualm;

Being clumsy, this risk you're not ready to take,

But I so wish you would try;

You’re afraid of where this might take,

You’ve been hurt before, but so have I;

I hope someday you'll love me,

I hope someday you'll care;

But if and when that day does come,

I hope I'm not broken beyond repair;
