Across State lines Crush.

Ronald Allen 1985 (Pittsburgh PA)



I thought this over a thousand times before I sent this out.
Even if I don’t get my wish I’m happy God made you.
I’m not crazy for love
until I seen you.
Someone I wished I knew.
How do a stranger who may be potentially dangerous become a thought in my day.
In a situation like this how do I gain the attention of you
Because I want it to come greater than having your name flying across with a message on a blimp balloon.
If I had one second of power to turn generations backwards in order to grow with you and come before all your exes
than the speed of lighting will be second fastest behind my actions.
If I had one second of power to turn backwards generations I would and your life I wouldn’t change it.
I’ll pause you at the age your are today
reserving you until our understanding catches up and when I go press resume
I will be right in my place
standing at point blank in your face
and the icing on the cake
is wrapping my arm around your beauty starting now and every day.
I’ll appreciate you around in any neighborhood around in any company’s eyes
I’ll show them the difference from a prize vs a queen being claimed.
I’ll worldly announce you.
I wished I knew you from elementary school, middle school, and high school
sitting in class across from you
than this crush wouldn’t be new.
It’s true a closed mouth would never get fed
and it’s disrespectful that I’m in your DM
telling you all I can and writing you without permission but I’m still a growing man just approaching you in this condition from long distance.
I want to ask you this because I really want to this to happen.
I got a heart so can you respond to me in your woman.

Can I send you a thousand messages until you say call.
One thousand messages so we can build up our bond.
Just a thousand message to get to know who we are.
My thousand messages will be worth more than fifty twenty inside your Louis Vuitton.
Our energy will connect across the rivers and bridges for we can treat this world as our seesaw but we must place the fulcrum in Washington to let them know it’s love over politics.
Energy is real and words you can feel
no matter over how many states has us separated.
Let’s just come on and let our voice travel miles and build smiles inside our hearts for the time now to reserve our later.
