I DIDN'T write this poem.. the girl I am in love with did.. she is a much better poet then I am.. she writes them all the time of all different kinds... This is one of my favorite

Bring me my shelter take away my pain
That's what it does to me when I hear your name
You are my savior you are my truth
And all I want to do is be with you
You think its' so hard when there's no one around
I know it's so hard when your losing ground

I feel like an angel passing you by
I want you to be there whenever I cry
I wish I could hold you I wish for nothing else
When I look into your eyes my heart melts

I could stare into the sun and not go blind
I could still be happy next to you during my last time
It doesn't' take much to make some one smile
It doesn't' take much just to stand with me for awhile
I need you…
Here and now I am not far gone
Sitting and watching you get drunk on the lawn
Watching the car smash and feeling the pain
Screaming in terror I call out your name
A fluke on my part you're standing near by
In great relief I can sigh
Whenever you're near the light's flicker still
Watching you makes me happy, writing a bill
I'm trying so hard to be what you want me to be
Maybe it's time I just try and be me

I could stare into the sun and not go blind
I could still be happy next to you during my last time
It doesn't' take much to make some one smile
It doesn't' take much just to stand with me for awhile
I need you…

Running out time that travel so fast help me I'm falling out of your grasp where are you now when I need you the most I know you care but it's help to show I need you here by  my side I need you I'm dying inside this aching body filled with pain just stand next to me just say my name say that you love me say that you care I need you I need you here…
Happy in my last times
Doesn't' make much sense
Just be kind
make me smile
but only for awhile
I need you…

WOW this is gorgeous...
incredible devotion and emotion expressed in this and its so very well written.
tell your poetic angel I said superb work!
take care, jm

 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.
