I'll just try again . . .

I'm whisking my eyes toward yours that won't stop seeing,
on a sunny day that is outshined by a smile not fleeting.
Forever can be never, I said to sound wise,
but not having thought it, many were deaf to the sound of my cries.

Once is enough so that I'm being specific
Twice is better, and some would say that thrice is even terrific.
A second message, that, hopefully, you'll see, and be anxious to read
If not, I'll be strong so I'll not cry, nor shall I drown myself in mead.

This and that, I said again, everything you've heard before
But one unique thing that I may have found, to include are my words of lore.
A friend is worth a thousand words, but I'm sure you're worth many, many more,
So I'd like to find out somehow what words *you* have to say,
Of that I'm more than positive, of that I am sure.

So, grace me with that graceful smile, and I'll return one not as bright
for when I see you across the room, I'd wave lightly, and then be set alight.
Standing gently while under my breath I'd utter a silent bellow.
And when we met you'd look at me with those beautiful eyes,
and then we'd say, "Hello"
