You have a name but I want to give you my last 

You have my heart but to come into your life I need a boarding pass

I saw you coming out of that building and you walked right by me 

I need your permission to put you in my family tree

Please turn around because I blew my opportunity

I want to love you forever and ever and ever even if its against the law

Yeah even if its unconstitutionally

Just please turn around so i can give you a hug

You came into my life as my antidepressant drug 

Can we both go to starbucks and get coffee from one of their world famous mugs

Please turn around so I can tell you all of these corny jokes 

Please turn around so you can meet my folks 

Please turn around so I can make you mine 

Please turn around so I can be on cloud nine

To turn around would be to take on such a responsibility, I think. I would hate to be someone's antidepressant. What if the drug stopped working? And who would be there to anti-depress me from listening to all those corny jokes?  It all feels a little one sided, but that may be the point you are making, in which case, you did it well, and  I enjoyed reading your poem.

Thank you that was the point I was trying to make. And unfortunately it is one sided but i've learned to not force anything because if its meant to be it will happen
