Unexpected Love


Love is not what I expected

it's really reckless

never meant this word so much 

I'd put it on a necklace

like if this person did me dirty

then i would neglect it

but everything she say is special

now she off my checklist

never loved like this before 

i know these girls get jealous

but if I said this word to you

I'd hope that you accept it

4 letters with meaning

I hope you know I meant it

and now my heart is blowing up

I hope you get the message
