Why won't you go out with me?
That Lily
is amazingly fiery
is brilliant
is beautiful
is bright
like a candle in the night
She enters the room and all I see
is her
Because
well
I love her
However
(and this is the problem)
My Lily does not love me
well
I'm sure she loves me
deep down
My friends say
She's just playing hard to get
She has a lock
and I have the key
But
What is it?
Why
Why
Why
Won't you go out with me, Lily?
I am
clever
and charming
and handsome
I fly
climbing through the sky
as on wings of finest silk
Okay, no, on a wooden broom
but, it sounds pretty
Girls like pretty, right?
I don't
do dark magic
nor call you nasty names
But you act like I do
I am everything you'd like in a boy
Why
Why
Why
Won't you go out with me?
"Arrogant toe rag"
you yell
Maybe, but
I love you so
I don't understand
I'd do any thing for you
Any thing at all
Any thing you choose
Your hair
so red
a burning coal
Is the fire that lights my very soul
Girls like complements,
right?
But you just turn away "No, Potter"
Just, James
please?
You like Remus
and he's only got clever down
You like Peter
and he's not one of great renown
You even like
Snape
I'd prefer an ape
How can you not like me
when I'm
clever?
and charming?
and handsome?
Could it be that
you don't like me
Because I'm
clever?
And charming?
And handsome?
And know it?
I can't forget that I'm
clever
And charming
And handsome
Sorry?
What now?
I don't know
*sigh*
Wait!
I have an idea
Sirius has a tome
Twelve Fail-Safe Ways to Charm Witches
I'll not go home
till you go out with me
Wish me luck.
-James
