So, I'm a newbie and I'm a little shy about posting something for the 1st time but I figured instead of talking about myself, I could post something I'm a little more comfortable with... This is a poem I wrote for my sister. I was just being silly when I wrote it; I'm not really crazy!!! Lol! Well, it's kinda long but I hope you all enjoy it!!! :dancing:
Just How Much I Love You
You know, I really love you BUT you'll never know just HOW much I love you
I never took the time out to start counting the ways and maybe it was because either I'm extremely lazy or I didn't wanna count forever
BUT you'll never know just how much I love you...
Maybe I should swim across the ocean and pick you more than a dozen roses, but that wouldn't ever come close to how much I love you.
Maybe I should write a book and explain my eternal gratitude
Or go to the highest mountain top and yell it out loud until I turn blue in the face, lose my place and then cease to breathe because I used all the air in my lung space just to show you that you can't be replaced...
... Or Maybe...
Maybe I should time travel back to day one
When it was all said and done
And my heart you won
And this whole thing begun
And then secretly tape record it and show it to you to make you think I've been having it for a long time, when I really hadn't, but I'm just showing you now,
And you'll smile.
But that still won't prove how much I love you.
Maybe I should clean up the whole house and make your favorite dish
Then sit across from you to catch up on what we've missed
When we both know there's nothing on the list
And if that's the case,
Maybe we should argue one day,
Have you beg for me to stay,
Then pack my bags and run away,
Come back the very next day
And let you know how miserable I was without you and then make up and say, "lets never fight again"...
BUT, sometimes, when it's late and dark and no one's around,
As I watch you sleep, I think and I visualize me positioning myself over you and staring at your peaceful body as I take my hands and wrap them around your neck, as I feel my fingers locking in on a tight grip around your flesh and squeezing until I just can't squeeze anymore and watch closely as I witness your living daylights escape and released from your lifeless body, spill out in the open and slowly flow and fade away...
BUT because I love you, I would never do that
I can't live without you, you know that.
And just because I spared your life, doesn't mean you know how much I love you...
I mean, if I was to take your life, I would forever be in sorrow, not only because of the dark, gloomy jail cell and the life sentence but because I would never wanna go without you...
But that's still not enough...
Maybe I should write you a ghetto love poem where I curse you out and still manage to make you feel loved...
...OR MAYBE...
Maybe I should disrespect you in the worst way
Say things I shouldn't say
Let thoughts escape from my mind without thinking
And make you feel one inch tall and still shrinking
Then place you on a boat, headed downstream with no paddle
Leave you out there to fend for yourself
And just before things go from bad to worse, I put everything on the line to save you right before you reach the waterfall...
But that still wouldn't do...
Maybe I should have your picture in a frame and light a million candles all around it and do a little séance for you.
Have the house all dark and everything
And when you walk through the doors, I'll call you "the pretty one" and place beads about you neck as I dance circles around you...
.................................................. ......................................
Okay, that's just weird, BUT it still wouldn't show you...
Maybe I should just SIMPLY tell you to turn and look at me and see just that how much I love you is in my eyes and the expression on my face and know that the secure spot you hold in my heart is firmly established and in place.
It's in my body language when I'm loving on you, when we're playing and even when we argue.
It's written down in my mind, body, heart, soul and somewhere on paper.
It's evident everyday I wake up and leave the house, when I turn around and lock the door. I love you just that much that I don't want no one to steal you or your beloved TV.
I love you just that much to nag and fuss and get on your nerves because I care about your wellbeing.
And because sometimes you don't know, see, sense or feel that, you'll never know just how much I love you...
But I do love you... JUST THAT MUCH...
