Be My Girl

I cried tonight
But it was not like before
When someone to love me
Was all I implored

This time the tears fell
Because my wish has come true
My prayers have been answered
In the wonder that is you

I smiled tonight
But it was not like before
When it was just a physical response
Nothing more

This time I smile
Not from the mouth but the eyes
This lost little boy
Has finally come back to life

I wrote tonight
This poem, these words
About my best friend
my love, my girl

This time it seems
That indeed you feel the same
I prayed to God for your arrival
and soon after you came
