Staring at an empty screen,
Then a beautiful picture like I've never seen.
The music continues to ring,
But now my heart begins to sing.

The memories that we've shared,
Could I show you how much I've cared?
Every moment with you in my head,
Is one less moment I should dread.

For when I feel you close,
My heart blooms like a red rose.
And even though I was consumed in apathy,
I begin to feel because you're a part of me.

I've never felt so joyful before,
You keep me wanting just a little more.
You're inexplicably great in every way,
And I can only hope to see you grow every day.

I'm writing this early yet it feels so late,
You've been on my mind yet I hesitate.
You make all my world's problems fade,
A feeling of relief that I could not trade.

I've been here a while but my time wears thin,
I feel like yet another time I cannot win.
Because IF YOU'RE GONE, what will remain?
A broken heart and love left in consuming pain.

So I ask you this humble in heart,
Maybe so we don't feel so apart.
This way you'll be here,
And I won't shed another tear.

I can finally be with you,
A well wanted reality come true.
So would you give me honor of being mine?
Will you be my great and lovely Valentine?

It may be too much to ask,
But with you it may not be such a difficult task.
This is what I've wanted for so long,
But to you it may be wrong.

I worry what you may think,
Worry my heart will begin to sink.
You, with your greatness and all,
Being the one to make me fall.

So please just take this and don't say a word,
For the saying may be painful when heard.
But if you could think about it for a while,
An answer my mind won't have to race for miles.

No matter what happens I'm here till the end,
As someone who you can always call your friend.
I'll never leave again and come back tardy,
But whatever happens I'm thankful for that party.
