I'Ll Say, I'Ll Sing... Poem by Chantal Lammerts

Everything at once, not a single break in between,
So many around, I’m probably the plainest ever seen,
But what if I, inside, am way different from the rest?
I’m not indicating that I’m the worst nor best,
But different I am, and proud of it too,
Because it is the difference, that’ll bring me closer to you.

When you question me, I have no idea what to say,
I’ve got the feeling that I look like a fool today,
As my cheeks turn red, and my voice can’t find its way out,
I stumble, trip and fall, to my clumsiness there’s no doubt,
But when you catch me, and I thank you silently with my eyes,
I’ve got the amazing feeling that I have been caught by a huge prize.

I don’t deserve you, and you deserve much more than me,
That are some things that I —now— can clearly see,
But still you say you love me, how could I ever believe that,
Although I see how you make me happy, even when I’m very sad,
How you make me laugh when I fell down, and how you never say a bad word,
You in love with me… isn’t that utterly absurd?

You said those words to me, again and again,
I believe you said it with more emotion than any other can,
I admit I’m starting to believe you, reluctant as I am,
You call me names as love, or my Madame,
You told me so much, but I’ve noticed that I don’t say a thing,
So: “I love you! ”—I’ll say, I’ll sing…
