\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Smitten Beyond Repair<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Why do you shield yourself in mystery?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

When I ask, \u00a0you say it is \u00a0only me.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You can do magic, it is plain to see.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have cast a spell over me.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

This can\u2019t be in this day and age.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But, my heart is captured on every page.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Though I may try to escape this cage.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

There is no way to turn the page.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am hypnotized, mesmerized, vitalized,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

to the extent that you don\u2019t realize.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You are all & everything to my eyes.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am hopelessly in love, I realize.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have taken me to a new level.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I pray that you are not the devil.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have created a new equation<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You paralyze me at every occasion.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am smitten beyond any repair.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As I stand, open mouthed, & stare.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Has someone just made me king?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You are my all and everything.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, if only, you are my queen,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I will be able to do everything.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You make me what I am today.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I do it for you in every way.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I love you. What more can I say.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Life has provided the only way.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

That way is for you to be mine.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I need a big \u00a0glass of wine.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I have got to try to unwind.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I can do that with a little wine.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have taken me to a new level.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I pray that you are not the devil.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have created a new equation.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You paralyze me at every occasion.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am smitten beyond any repair.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As I stand, open mouthed, & stare.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
