The Poety of
Terri Lyn Stanfield
Bedazzled

You invade my dreams
You're under my skin
I try to resist
But I just can't win
You are always there
In my thoughts all day
I can't concentrate
You won't go away
Everywhere I look
I see you so clear
When I least expect
Then you are right here
With your gorgeous smile
And your potent charm
And I start to feel
All dizzy and warm
I fight to stay calm
To seem unfrazzled
But truth to be told
I am bedazzled
I should admit it
I've fallen in love
But I'm not ready
If push comes to shove
I'll fess all to you
And give you my heart
But not til I must
I'm playing it smart
I'll hold you at bay
But make sure you know
The interest is there
But let's take it slow
You snuck up on me
My heart unaware
That you were the one
With whom it would share
I'm walking on air
My head in the clouds
But til I'm ready
To say it out loud
I'll play hard to get
Fight the attraction
But you will win me
Fraction by fraction
I'll finally cede
And give up the fight
Because I don't doubt
That you're Mr. Right
