Poetic Injustice

This was written as per a friend's request.He wanted to impress a lady through literature. i am not too sure whether he created an impression or sent her into depression.

"Meet _____", he said, as a formal introducing trend,
How badly I wished you'd be, more than just a friend.
The moment was completely seized by your mere presence,
Always had the gift of Gab, but I couldn't form a sentence.
My senses were captured, what you said I couldn't hear.
As carefree as I am, losing you became the biggest fear.

When I met you again, the very same emotion persisted,
"She's the one for you", my brain and heart insisted.
Never had I observed a girl, in such fine detail,
With genuineness and clarity, that's what I'll entail.

It tied down my vision, your lovely coal black eyes,
Hypnotized me so much that I forgot the premise.
A lovely dimpled smile, accentuated by your lips' curl,
Did definitely give my life, the much needed furl.
Enhancing the charm was, a pointed nose and cascading hair,
I started hating God, for; to the other girls He wasn't fair.

A metamorphosis had happened; I found THE reason to live,
My sole aim in life being that, all this you would believe.
This hadn't happened to me, never once all these years,
It’s my promise to you, with me; you'll never be in tears.


Very True to myself and you, I've penned down all my thoughts,
Expecting an affirmative, my mind's running the rate of knots.
I had to tell this all, there's no way I could resist,
With you I'll have a LIFE, otherwise I'll simply exist.
Please consider my plea; I have no one else to go,
So either you say a YES, or you do not say a NO.

Hey Thanks Richa. Its Poetic injustice because if the poem does not work, the poet doesn't have to bear the brunt...
