A Victim of Love

Written at 4am after getting of the phone with her.

I smile when I talk to you,
What stupidity is this?
I'm happy and ecstatic,
Do i know what love is?

I stay awake coming off the phone,
How could this be?
My heart won't slow down,
Do I know what love is?

My mind fills of thoughts,
Will they ever cease?
They begin and end with you,
Do I know what love is?

My heart makes me weak,
Can it crumble my pride?
I can't let you in,
Do i know what love is?

You are a princess, an angel, a star,
Should I let you know?
I can give you the world,
Do I know what love is?

Your happiness before my own,
Would i give my life?
No one comes close,
Do I know what love is?

I don't hesitate when people ask,
Do they need to know?
I want all to see I'm yours,
Do I know what love is?

The future is uncertain,
How can we make it work?
I do not fear the consequence,
Do I know what love is?

Love is you,
But what am i?
Can my love last all alone?
Will you ever realize?
Do 'you' know what love is?
