Unexpected Love


My heart beats slow, calm, and steady

When you're not near,

But when I see your face

It beats quickly and unclear,

 

Feelings for you that I did not want

Ones that I tired to fight,

Developed so quickly

And filled my heart with fright,

 

The thought of losing you

Fills my soul with sadness,

Knowing you will be gone from me

Causes my heart such madness,

 

When you're not near

I wish that you were,

And when you are

My emotions begin to stir,

 

The timing is wrong

It always seems to be,

When I want something so much

Life does this to me,

 

The way that I'm feeling 

Is oh so very true,

I can't help these feelings

I fell in love with you!
