Mine to Keep

I mended my own heart for you.
But you ended up stealing it,
Along with my shoe.
You were never the nicest boy.
Yet in my soul, you gave me every joy.

I wouldn't let people know
That you gave my heart the brightest of glows.
I couldn't help, but surrender my heart.
You were truly mine from the very start.
Everyone knew you weren't the right one for me.
But I fell and together, we would be.

Your smile helped boost my shallow heartbeat.
I couldn't resist blushing in the summer heat.
Your gorgeous eyes had lead the way.
Proving that you wouldn't dare stray.

You crowded my dreams.
Forced off-course my pattern of sleep.
Awake, making me simply wonder:
If you were mine to keep.

Reminds me of a song, Love Like This Before.

That was a sweet story-poem about a doubt within a realationship. A line in the first verse "Along with my shoe" inspired me to write this funny gift poem for you:

Shoe

I had a big hole,
that made me feel blue
a hole in the sole
of my big red shoe.

When I made it whole
for my love of you,
then you turned and stole
my shoe mended new.

All the feelings conveyed in this poem make me really want to fall in love. I cannot say more than that.
I think the way you express the uneasiness but excitement of a encounter which makes even MY heart race is almost perfect
