darling

you sleep beside me, soundly unaware of me.

your face wiped clean of any emotion.

each night i wonder how much longer it will last.

how much longer i'll see your cheerful face each morning,

or feel your warm kiss on my lips.

how much longer do i have to tell you that i love you each day.

looking over at your straight face, lost in your dream world,

i wonder what you think of me, how much you love me back.

i love your short brown hair that graces your face.

i love your arms that protect me when i feel so helpless, so weak.

i love your charming yet cautious personality that portrays you.

i love your steel-blue eyes that remind me of the summer night sky.

oh, how hopeful i am, as i wish that it would last forever,

how it would never fade and die like a beautiful rose does.

so i lay next to you, and brush the hair out of your closed eyes,

i feel myself drugged by your beauty, and i slip-off into that dream world, where nothing ends...

Author notes

just a love poem that i gave to my partially emo BF. he loved it and then wrote me one in return.....which i need to put it on my author page, just so everyone can see it. it's way better than my poem, but he seemed to like it....

his exact words were "wow, you wrote me a poem? how cute!"

then i ended up saying "well, it's not very good, but at least i tried, right?"

he paused..."of course! i'm totally cool with it. as long as you love me, that's all that counts".

then we hugged *squeeeee!!!!!*

i love my partially emo boyfriend!!

    Teehee, yes emo boys are the hottest, for the most part.

    Anywho, this is lovely. The tone is crystal and the meaning is so deep and great. Many can easily relate to this, while your piece could create hope and desires for others.

    Haha, it seems that your relationship is well and strong, something I have yet to experience. It's cool that you two do stuff like this for each other. Teehee, kinda cute. =P

    Great job,
    Ash
