Poetry: I never knew

Oh, Baby

I never knew someone so small
could take over my entire mind.
When I am in your presence,
common sense is left behind.

Your smile lights up the room
and every corner of my heart.
Huge round eyes just emphasize
that you are very smart.

Enchanted and mesmerized
by the very sight of you,
My eyes are glued to every move,
each thing you say and do

Your wisps of hair, dimpled grins,
and baby powder scent,
intoxicate my senses
to a ridiculus extent

To garner your attention,
I gladly play the fool.
If you respond, or glance my way
I quickly lose my cool.

Head over heels, out of my mind,
madly in love with you,
that one so small could wield such power
Is something I never knew.

    You should have talked to me.
    I never knew.

    You hid it well

    I never knew

    All the pain

    He gave to you

    I never saw

    A single bruise

    Or saw the violence

    by JRR

    There are so many things

    That I never knew

    Until the blessed day

    I met you

    What would it feel like to wear a crown

    If only for a day

    To race around a NASCAR track

    And collect six- or seven-figure
