A poem inspired by today’s output for The New Story

A duet is what I want to sing with you
A song of love and longing, sweet and true
I’ve been dreaming of this moment for so long
But I was afraid to tell you how I feel

You’re the girl I’ve had a crush on since tenth grade
But you never knew the secret that I kept
You used to date a guy who made me feel small
But he’s gone now, and I have a chance to shine

You smile at me and say you’ll sing with me
You make my heart skip a beat and fill with joy
You hug me and say you’re glad to be my friend
But I hope that maybe someday you’ll be more
We’ll sing “Somewhere” from West Side Story
A song of hope and promise, bright and clear
We’ll sing it with our hearts and souls and voices
And maybe we’ll find our somewhere here
