Analysis of Taken Flight

Juliette Aurora 1997 (USA)



"I love you" isn't just a phrase;
They're not just words you say;
8 letters with a meaning;
They leave you with a tingling;

A kiss isn't just an action;
Something more than just a mere reaction;
A feeling that leaves you wanting more;
An attraction your heart adores;

True love isn't just an impression;
No, it doesn't leave you in depression;
It comes from the heart and remains;
Grabbing hold of your life as it reins;

What we have definitely isn't a game;
"I love you" are words that aren't fake;
Our kiss sparkles in the night;
True love has taken flight. <3
