There is so much we need to discuss
Questions need answers, I'm curious
The shyness you feel can be resolved
Get to know me before getting involved


If you want to know me, i'm right here
Romantic feelings might be the ones that interfere
Taking us to our own little paradise
I'm right here if there's room in your life

Don't tell me what I'd like to hear
Speak from the heart, be sincere
I need a prince not a snake
I need to be convinced
That my heart won't break

The issues are laid upon the table
Right here is a heart that's stable
I'm ready to be more than friends
So solely on you it depends

Hi Shakira,

while it's nice to tell someone you love him/her, it's hard to put yourself in such a vulnerable situation too..kudos to the personna in this poem for being able to "lay the cards"....

i'll play the detective game with you..but you will have to continue posting though..

Hi Shakira,

This is a great poem of longing. I think I know who you are, but don't wanna hurt anyone if I'm wrong. Can I e mail you my guess?
