Risk

OK.. so this is my like.. upteenth contest on music.  But I can't get enough of it.  Music touches me in such a profound way.  I listen to a little bit of it all, but today I found a new song.  It's so beautiful that it brought tears to my eyes.  I will put the lyrics in here because this artist is so unknown that they don't even have a homepage.  They've only got their music on MySpace.com.  

Risk-Katina

Say it clearly near my ear
And on my neck and on my breast
So I’ll be sure to feel you
Say it softly to the air
And to the trees and to the sky
So I’ll be sure to see you

Say it clearly
So I’ll be sure and hear you.
Say it softly
So I’ll be sure and hear you.

Say it clearly to my eyes
And to my hands and to my feet
So I’ll be sure to see you
Say it slowly to the sun
And to the moon and to the stars
So I’ll be sure to feel you

Say it so my hands cannot deny it
Say it so my heart cannot defy it
Say it so my feet won’t run away
Say it so my heart will stay
Say it so my hands cannot deny it
Say it so my heart cannot defy it
Say it so my feet won’t run away
Say it so my heart will choose to stay

Say it so my hands cannot deny it
Say it so my heart cannot defy it
Say it so my feet won’t run away
Say it so my heart will stay
Say it so my hands cannot deny it
Say it so my heart cannot defy it
Say it so my feet won’t run away
Say it so my heart will choose to stay

Say it so my hands cannot deny it
Say it so my heart cannot defy it
Say it so my feet won’t run away
Say it so my heart will stay.

Now for what I want.  There are a few options but they will all have to do with the same thing.  Sorry for not making it a broader subject, but it has to do with the song...

1) Write about how this song makes you feel. (Doesn't have to be a poem)
2) Write a poem about how this song makes you feel.
3) Write a poem about being deeply in love with someone.
4) Write a poem describing love (no anti-love poems please)
5) Write a poem about loving someone and wanting them to desperately love you back (no cutting, suicide types please)

MAKE THE POEMS TASTEFUL!

Rules:
1) In the author's box type in Risky Business so that I know you read and followed all rules. Also put which option you chose.
2) Please please please use spell-check.  I hate reading poetry that does not use spell check.
3) No erotica.. this contest has NOTHING to do with erotica.. it's about pure love.
4) No cussing.. it is not needed in a love contest.
5) No dark writes.. because, yet again.. this is a love contest.

Have fun and enjoy the song.  If you'd like to hear the actual song please go to my MySpace page and listen.  I promise you, if you are a "love" type of person you'll like this song.  It's a little bit of drums but mostly acoustic.  It's all around beautiful.  Here is the link to my page.  WWW.MYSPACE.COM/1LONELYSTRANGER

    Thank you all for entering my contest. I was hoping for more entries, but I can't be picky. I loved every one of the writes and had a hard time picking the top three, but I chose them based on what touched my heart more. Thanks again.
