Yawn and Stretch

I turn through the pages,
And still don't know what to say,
Or merely how to say it,
In the form of what it means,
She's been crushed before,
I couldn't do this to her,
Maybe she'll think I'm faking,
Maybe she'll thik it's the truth,
I can't turn the pages anymore,
I have now run out,
And in this sense,
Out of time also,
To where I not only want to,
But have to,
And here I am today,
Across from this beautiful woman,
I know it's right,
Holding my breath,
I don't want it to come out,
Wrong,
Just right,
Here it goes,
Any minute,
She gets up and smiles my way,
I stand up beside her,
Stretch and yawn,
That's the trick,
Lean in towards her ear,
Whisper lightly tree huge words,
I love you,
Two more,
My dear.
