daniel-ferris - Hello Poetry

In that moment, your skin was perfect Just like the rest of you. Soft, gentle, pure... How could I resist? Here, now, I can see Our time had a taste like Arabica. Short, bittersweet, with notes of hazelnut. But in that instant, That eternal moment, There was not one drop of coffee On your lips. Because you were the first girl I almost kissed. And you were the first girl I wrote poems about. I know they didn't rhyme, but It was the best I could do. Y'know, poetry was kinda new To me. But I wrote it for you. Better?

I loved you But you didn't feel the same way. I hated you for that.

I’m not much of a poet. I’m not much of a poet because Whenever I speak my words, they come tumbling out Like some amateur circus I’m not much of a poet because When I write, it all sounds better in my head. And I’m not much of a poet because When I see a rose, that’s all I see A simple little flower. I don’t get inspired. But when I look at you, When I look at you I see so much more than just a girl. You inspire me. I’m not much of a poet but When I think of you the words they come rushing out I cannot keep them from escaping my fingertips and Keating said language was meant to woo And I don’t know if that’s a lie but One thing I know is true Lately, it seems all my language is for you. When we’re together, I see everything anew, and I guess that’s just to say You’ve changed my worldview.
