Let Me Be Straight...

Every time, when cautious and timid 

You silently open up the window

Next to your bed,

And

Guarding carefully your face with the

End of the curtain

Lean forward to look at my silhouette downstairs,

I always think of delivering a few words

That might sound sweet to your ears

And

That you might stay leaned for a few seconds more…

Every time, immediately after my shadowy figure is discovered

I end up with a slight Thud…and the windows closed.

This is fifth time the window is closed before me

Since I came here this week end…

And now,

I am determined to convey you the secrets of my thumping heart!

Well enough! I have waited a long

To tell you all that I have in an atmosphere befitting

The Romantic Movie stills…

But

You know, that you never gave a chance…!

Well…finally now,

Let me go straight…

In the most casual and unromantic approach ever attempted

Here I utter the words…

Senorita…my lovely Senorita,

‘Tis very urgent for u to know,

And it would be so kind of you…

If you…

Allow me to make a phone call

To the Garage…

My car has broken down…

And

My phone is long dead to stir.

So, please, my beauty,

Don’t just reopen and shut the window

And blush,

Instead

Let me show

Where the telephone lies!

And

After that, please go on blushing

As long as you can!!!!
