In a Long Time by ~perfect-alibi:iconperfect-alibi:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open


You know,

I want him,
     More than I've wanted anything in a very long time.

I don't even know why.

It's not like I even like him,

     I just need him,

Because as far from perfect as he is;
                   he's perfect for me.

He knows just what to say,
   to push me far enough,
        far enough away,

     That I've got to work to get back

Because I can't forget
     his spicy dark skin

sliding on mine

    He opens his eyes and revels
and reminds me of beauty

    Because my jaded eyes

   just make him laugh

I don't believe in love,
           But I know I need him

He belives in love
  

             but can he ever love me?

Ah, how I love when Life gives me something new to write aobut...Makes me want to skip about in a field of dasies, wearing a sundress and weaving little flowered crowns...

LOL...I know how you feel when you finally have something good to write about :)! I feel the same way :P
This poem is lovely. I like the questioning and the way the speaker feels a need for the person :)

I've always liked postcards...But I've always thought of them as thumbing your nose at people....'look where I am and you're not!'
