From the start,
you’ve stolen my heart.
When you came,
our interests were the same.
When you’re with me,
be who you want to be.
I’ll show you what you’re worth
because I’m ‘gonna put you first.
If I was your girl,
I’d show you a whole new world,
but is it worth a kiss
or a risk.

The author's comments:
What IS a relationship worth anyway? A kiss? Or the risk of getting hurt? Big things to think about, and that's what this peice is about.
