Analysis of I like her

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



She carries a sweetness I've never seen
And sees things with a heavenly sheen
Her battles seem as innocent as kisses
so I wonder who she really misses
She loves like a cuddly teddy bear in a bed
It's so lovely what goes on in her head
And its cute how every line I translate
But she came when I was so ill of fate
When my boat had stumbled onto rocky ground
It was freed by a wave of love profound
And it rose into flights of endless foul
Where the skies awaken and let us converse in soul
As the light sways in sparks around our hips
And eventually my eyes are drawn to her lips
I see we are already the eclipse
Without a shadow of a doubt
I like her so much I want no longer to shout.
