Nervous

I crept in as the sun went down

The last bird chirped a sound

The air began to chill

The leaves became still

Each step slower that the last

As my heart beat fast

I pondered the ending

As I approach the beginning

She sat there blank faced

My arrival no surprise

I glance at my shoe lace

A diversion from my hearts cry

As my reached my pocket

The sweat tripled in flow

The object burned my hand

It feels like she knows

Joy turned fright

My mind turned on me

Every bone began to shake

As I got on one knee

Her eyes watched my every move

She moved with me in sync

Her mouth formed a smile

And cried as I blinked

With parched lips I began

To mutter words I've never spoken

Will you marry me my love

She replied in a host of tears

Yes you beautiful man

As the last bird chirped a song
