Love Poem: Sour Grapes

Sour Grapes

What must I do to impress you my love
You are to me a lass so very fair
To see you with another man sweet dove
Now leaves me with a heart in deep despair

I wonder what he has that makes him special
Just what now in Him must you surely see
Is it just that he's a handsome vessel
Why does this bloke make your heart feel so free

I'd give all that I have to be with you
It doesn't seem to me to be quite fair
Why can't I seem to find a love that's true
Why does false hope now seem to be my snare

You now mean more to me then life it seem
But all I have of you is in my dreams
