How can I guard my heart

When it is so easily given

As if on sale at the local mart

Candidate in sight

gone before you know

As if flown from a loose kite

Doesn't matter the length of time

One meeting is all it takes

to be able to write this rhyme

to find the one

a sign will come

for mother's prized son

How can I guard my heart

when its so easily given

as if on sale at the local mart
