Love's Waterloo
I looked at you a thousand times
before I saw you once
You never did look back at me
my vision sorely trumped
Till that one day I saw you clear
in substance and in form
But still I longed for one more look
where I still got it wrong
You're with me now in all I say
and everything I do
Though never more than what this is…
a lovesick waterloo
I wish I could have squinted more
or glanced with just one eye
As stars misled a heart deceived
-my fantasy belied

Though never more than what this is…

I wish I could have squinted more
or glanced with just one eye
As stars misled a heart deceived
