*for Steve, who will never get the chance to read this...*

I love the way you make me feel
The way you make me smile whenever you look at me
When your name pops up on the computer screen
To show that you have written
I am smitten...all over again
I love the way you smell,
With your Aqua Gio cologne on.
Aimlessly wandering through the mall,
Where we've been together, I spray myself at Kaufman's so that I can smell like you (almost) all day long.
Want to buy a bottle to spritz on my bedsheets
So that when I am trying to fall asleep
I'll close my eyes, thinking of you still
And maybe you'll invade my dreams.
Never thought I'd fall in love with someone who needs to be so..."detached"
When all I want to do
Is tackle you
Take you down to the ground and cover you with my kisses
Know about all your wishes and try to make them all come true
But even if I can't come through
You'd still know that I only want the best for you.
I need to feel the reciprocation of your love to make my life "complete."
Hate the way I feel like I have to compete
With your ex
Wish you'd just fall in love with me
Realize how good we would be (together)
How much better off your life could be
With me always wanting you to be happy.
Want you to be elated about the fact that we are dating;
Want you to feel so lucky because I care so much about you--could be with only you for the rest of my life
And to anyone, I am sure that means a lot
Because to me, it means that you are all I could ever need or want
And isn't that enough for you?
And if I could--and if it'd work--I'd give up food to be with you
Then, I would be so skinny that I'd work my way into that tiny space in your heart
(The place where it is broken.)
Maybe you don't understand the depth, capacity, or capability of my heart
But in time--you will see...
That all you ever needed was me.

Wow these are so really strong emotions.  It makes me very sad to read you little prefix to this poem and that the last line contains the word "was" and not is.
Best wishes

WOWOWOWOW!!!!! This was amazing. I really REALLY like this one. very powerful!!! Great job, I am going to have to say that this is my fav by you. It's written so beautifully, I couldn't have said it better myself. You've displayed how emotion can just take over one's life and make you fall in love so deeply you just need to feel it back. I surely hope everything comes your way. Good luck and once again WONDERFUL POEM!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

sad and sweet poem
You've really shown how much you do care for this person
Maybe, you need to show him you feelings more
show him this poem and see what he says
If it's meant to be, you two will be together
good luck and keep posting

This is soooooooo sweet!! i think that you should show him. maybe it will make him open up his eyes and realize how you feel. I did it with my bf before we were together and i think that is what helped us along   Good luck and much love!!

I know I'm saying I love a lot of these, but the truth is, this site has a lot of real talent, and this is an amazing poem. I'm literally dumbstruck, I really can't talk with my voice! such a vivid representation of emotion - beautiful.
