She Loves Him Poem by nicholas boateng

He sees her when she leers seductively
Of all maidens in the cottage he saw her lovely
He was a friend to all yet a little to her, shy
She liked him and he knew not why

She asks, "For me a cho'late, would you buy? "
For her the oceans he would cross sightlessly
He knew much well; a smile wry
"I love you, Jessie" he said, never heard with ears
"Do you, really? Please tell me why? ! "
A feeling my heart has lived on these year

Against their love were many; did leave hearts to tear
Elope! He would've with her to the cold hills
To a distant land of the unknown deserts
Never to return, never to love again- she scribes
And ever seeks broken within, never an auxiliary…ever relentless!
