His bright warm smile
Makes my face glow
It makes me beam in sunlight
And melt in the snow

His green eyes make me stumble
They make me stare into outer space
I want to look into them forever
Till the dead end of my days

I wish he would look at me
And think the same way about my smile
And about my eyes
But it’s a long shot, not within a mile

You see he moved away recently
A block from my house
The only trouble is
Well, anyone could see it. Even a mouse

He used to be good
And such a great guy
But someone gave him something
Now he’s surreally despised

My dad doesn’t like him
And neither does my mom
But I do, a lot
They just don’t understand him

All he need is a little love
And a little less of that other stuff
Okay, a lot less
And maybe a good shove

Then I could catch him in my arms
And he would look up at me and smile
I would kiss his soft cheek
And hold onto his hand a while

He would fall for me
And I will keep him straight,
Hopefully
