IV. COURTLY LOVE

Shy to admit, I'm in search
Of a scarce kind of decent me
Overall, willing, compassionate,
and much of a lovely soul
To whom you can offer the fullness
Of your heart and blossoming love

Always easier to discuss the possibility
Of my hard-to-guess prospective romance,
I spoke to mom, "No, Ma, I've got nothing...
to offer. My presence won't solely
be enough.
I just can't show up empty-handed
With a big smile on my face, completely
Marching in front of a guy and thinking
That they'll consider me only by my
Pure intentions and kindness of a heart.
No one's gonna believe and value it.
That's a sad change of human traits
Living in modern era can't ever replace
From the days of old in the history."

She voiced a reassuring answer,
"Daughter, somebody to you will come
Until then, just keep waiting."
As if on cue, a man of mystery
Really comes along with the audacity
To necessarily return to his rightful place
When I've stopped looking for love
He's barging in here to the entrance
Of my heart and no longer stood
By the wall of my isolation tower
Another answered prayer
Curiosity fills the air
How come a stranger feels like no stranger?
Has everything been falling into place?
Steal the spotlight under the new light
Us two getting hand-picked
And raised up as main characters
