A story still not written

The best story I never wrote
Could exclusively be written
When I put down the remote
By your divine beauty smitten.

But that I never could do
As god is my true witness.
The final match on channel two
Left me completely witless.

So the perfect words could not
On clear white paper be layed.
Shortly the bill was brought
With the price I dearly payed.

Your beauty I could not see
For I wasn’t even looking,
Now damned I roam the great sea
And my kingdom has no king.

If only you would stroll before me
The day would be much brighter,
I would want to breathe and be,
I would really be a fighter.

Come and help me write the words
Of the story that’s world’s best.
I will sing along with birds,
Cry north and south, east and west.
