Let Me Grab You a Streetcar

did you know that I love you? 
not in a feckless reckless 
kind of way. 
but in a complete, it feels neat 
everyday, 
kind of way. 

did you know you consume me? 
and emotions, 
almost overwhelm me. 

did you know that I love you? 
not in an immature way, I am not sure 
kind of way, 
but in a, it feels amazing, never fading, 
every single day, 
kind of way. 

in everything I feel and say 
i am in love with you 
and my colours are bright and true 
and nailed firmly to my mast 
i am not boasting, nor am I coasting 
let me grab you a streetcar 
before it runs past without noting
