Your smile makes it all seem worth it,

And yet your heart belongs to another.

I find myself falling for you.

I thought I was too old you know,

For teenage butterflies,

But when I’m near you

Oh how they flutter!

Your mind intrigues me;

Your kindness disarms me;

And your eyes sparkle like stars

Dancing across the liquorice night sky.

I’m irresistibly backsliding towards you,

Losing my grip,

Despite the lighthouse warnings.

Is it too late to escape your alluring ways?

Or are the rocks already too close?
