A phrase you sometimes said, something I didn't understand; you were offering, and I didn't take your hand.
Looking back, now I see, I missed it from the start; I was hearing with my head, not listening with my heart.
I saw. I liked. I wanted. But I didn't look, care, or accept, So I couldn't find, love, or know how romance is kept.
One question, before I snuff the tiny flame you lit, "If my love was a lollipop, would you lick it?"
