Fallen in Love

I'm good with words, when I write with my pen
I can rhyme, create and make things happen
But to say these sweet things to you, my dear
Well, you truly have nothing to fear

You know there's more to me than what you can see
With you I'm certainly becoming a better me
With what you do, with what you say each night
All of this is much easier to write

I have fallen in love with all of you
Your smile, your heart, yes this is true
Your kiss, your touch, every word that you say
Please make today last forever and a day

Thinking of you always, you do know this
As always, I send your way a loving kiss

Be with Me

I wrote so many love poems and had phrases in my head
These things I retained, to others they remained unsaid
These sweet words were not to be revealed until much later
When they were appreciated by you, someone greater

I come across old snippets of writings that I saved
Of when I was laughing, or when I actually caved
To what life was throwing at me on that particular day
I resorted to writing, and left it unsure of what to say

As I read completed poems and find sketches of lovers
I wonder why I hid these things under journal covers
Then a picture of you and I together comes to mind
And I cannot wait to see what else I can hopefully find

They say that good things come to those who wait
And I'm so happy that you're here, thank you fate
Now I have someone that is the true image of my work
Who loves me for me, every joke to silly quirk

There is absolutely no other person I would rather see
In anything that I write, just you being with me

Disney

Alice found answers in Wonderland
Wendy fell in love in Neverland
Dorothy found a home at Oz
Moana found out her true cause

Aurora woke up in a dream come true
Snow White, so young, she did too
Mulan fought to prove that girls can fight
Merida proved that family is always right

Cinderella spoke up to change her universe
Ariel defended another to break a curse
Jasmine broke down her physical walls
Rapunzel followed her true mother's calls

Belle looked beyond, and broke a societal cord
Tiana built everything to fit her own world
Pocahantas listened to her heart and went to explore
Jane grew up knowing that she always wanted more

Tinker Belle used her knowledge and flew
Elsa let it all go when offered a final cue
Giselle lived naively, until she saw clearly
Esmerelda, though hunted, lived fearlessly

These characters may not have existed at all beyond the page
But to girls wanting to be brave, they have set the stage
