I'm not really sure how to explain
These feelings I get when I hear your name.
To tell you the truth, they drive me insane
                                          And I'm not really sure what to do.

I've known you for ages, so why is it now
When I hear your voice, my heart beats so loud?
Why do I feel like I'm walking on clouds
                                          Simply by just being near you?

Why do I write my emotions with rhymes?
It seems like a cheesy waste of my time.
But you are so unique, and truly sublime,
                                          I felt that a poem was fitting.

You see, I find your mind truly remarkable.
Your willingness to speak up, highly admirable.
And your default demeanor is always so amiable.
                                          The warmth of your smile; unremitting.

Your brilliant mind has earned my respect
For the way you think deeply on every subject
You are tolerant and kind; there's nothing left to perfect!
                                          You're incredible just as you are.

I suppose I should mention, whenever you sing
All pain fades and life becomes serene
If you were any more perfect, you would have wings
                                          Please believe me, you're a shining star!

Well... maybe I do know how to explain
These feelings I get when I hear your name
I just hope my rambling doesn't sound too inane
                                          I assure you though, each word is true

So, why do I write my emotions with rhymes?
It still seems a cheesy waste of my time
Eh, what can I say? Is poetry a crime?
                                    .............plus, it's kind of all I know how to do.
Yes, this was inspired by a specific person.
No, I probably won't ever actually show it to them.
Generally speaking, most of my poems are "inspired by" someone but are not necessarily "for" or "about" them.
Nonetheless I'm pretty proud of how this one turned out.
