Unrequited {Love Poems}

The Bell Tower

There's a pretty place by the SMC

Where the birds start chirping after three

And rainy days make freshmen see

The beauty of McDonald's tees

And someone there once said to me

That this is where I'll find a he

And he and me will become we

If we walk under while it rings.

They say you'll get your ring by spring

At least your MRS degree.

I can't say I don't want these things,

But that's not what this means to me.

I'm here to learn and grow and be

To build my faith and authority

But I can't help but wondering

If my he is here for me.

He'll be a strong and loving he,

Smart, charming, and witty.

He'll look at me and always see

The things that others miss in me.

One day I'll lose my hope and glee

And go walk lonely by that tree

And just when I start getting weak

I'll sit down there and hold my knee,

Under the bell tower, while it rings,

I'll sit and wait for Prince Charming

And just when my hope starts to flee,

That's when my he will notice me.

He'll sit down there and pat my knee

And tell that I'm so pretty

And whisper in my ear something

That only he could guess of me.

Then just when I look up at he,

Those chiming bells will start to ring

And right at 7:43, he'll ask me, "Will you marry me?"

Yeah, that's right. I go to Lee.
