I Wonder How It Would Be. Poem by Reginald Walker

Girl every time I look at you,
I wonder how things would really be
To have someone like you by my side.
The joys that your presence would bring.
The excitement of coming home to you.
The feeling of holding hands with you.
The pleasure of just kissing your sweet lips.
These are the things I can only sit and imagine.
These are happiness, with you I can never experience.
They are gladness, I will never be able to share with you.
Because I will never be able to let you know that I care.
Nevertheless I can not help but wonder how it would be.

Girl, every time I look at you.
I really want to boldly walk up to you.
Whispers of my unknown love to you I would share.
Revealing the love for you that is hidden in my heart.
I want to reach and gently stroke your flowing hair.
I want smell the alluring scent of your perfume.
I want to bask in the allure of just being near you.
But I can only sit and dream about how it would feel.
These are happiness, with you I can never experience.
They are gladness, I will never be able to share with you.
Because I will never be able to let you know that I care.
Nevertheless, I can not help but wonder how it would be.

How would it be if I could wake up with you every day.
Turn and look upon the beauty of your smiling face.
Enjoy the presence of your magnificence and your grace.
I can imagine the joy of know that I will always be with you.
How would it be if I could come home to you.
Knowing that you will always be there for me.
Sharing with the joys and trials of our life.
I wish that somehow one day, you could be my wife.
These are happiness, with you I can never experience.
They are gladness, I will never be able to share with you.
Because I will never be able to let you know that I care.
Nevertheless I can not help but wonder how it would be.
