Why I Deserve Her

Cory Morrel

Why I deserve her? For I deserve her

since she deserved me first, reserved

first best for me last positioned served.

I deserve her, because she never

deserted me away, but close welcomed

bonded in the heart faithful of integrity.

She knows I deserve her, because I earned

her love, her unwilling courage trusted,

and acknowledged nobility preserved.

Then I realized I would receive her deserved,

those rainy quiet nights or snowy cloudy winters

blank a stair, still a speech and frozen a though,

an unwritten response untold of works adored.

Not a heart squeezed the ages soaked from the paint.

Not a mind collapsed the years from the bricks placed.

Not a soul disappeared the time from the picture drawn.

Astounded unprecedented, Amazed confident, Astonished

possibly sublime eccentric, preserved uncorrupted and conceived

unbroken conscientious; I hypothetically surmised, I deserve her.
