‘”Baby, come here…sit down. I, I wanna tell you a few things on my mind. I
want you to understand where my head is and---and I just feel you need to
know, aight? Well, anyways for starters, umm…I really like you---no…I mean
I truly care about you---wait, no that ain’t it either…ugh, honestly what I
am trying to say is, baby, Pookie, I think I love you!”

So I was fast asleep and in the middle of a great dream…
I wake up to thoughts that keep picking at my brain…
But before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head…
I spring up in my bed spouting out words I’ve never said…
Damn---I think I love you!

My heart skips a beat when people mention your name…
My mind goes crazy at the thought of your frame…
I think I love you, so why am I so scared?
I sit and reflect and visualize that you’re there---there by my side…
No more cloudy thoughts now its time that I abide---abide by my heart…
And in my heart is love, a love that holds true…
Thought it kills me to say I have never felt this before…
Damn---I think I love you!

I don’t know what I’m up against and I’ve got no where to turn…
I don’t know how to handle this and for your love, my body yearns…
I try to shield my eyes from the penetrable light…
But your essence is memorizing and your beauty shines to bright…
All my insecurities and all my perfections, vanished---gone…
I am more myself with you than even when I am alone---yeah…
Damn---I think I love you!

Your heartache, your pain, your crying eyes…
Your tears, stinging pleasures on my skin---I feel so alive…
Anguish traces through my soul, but yet I stand strong…
The tender warmth of your body & soul keeps me going on---and on---and on…
Damn---I think I love you!
The words echo and re-echo through my head…
I think I love you, I think I love you…
And now---now I’m down on one knee, head held high…
Damn---I’m so past the thinking phase…
So all I’m really trying to say is…
Baby, I love you and---and…
Will you marry me?
