The one that got away
Drewy nickson Mar 2017
It was her.
Always her.

I loved you before. Before all this, before I even knew what love was. What it meant, how it felt. How it hurt.

I loved you from the very start. Before you started working out to get girls to notice you, before they started falling head over heels for your **** deep voice, before you learned to play guitar so you could play backup for her in her band.

I loved you when being friends with you was embarrassing. When all you wanted to do was play pokemon on your newgame boy, when your heart was pure and innocent and you smiled at the little things. The days when we were as close as two people could possibly be. When you didn't look like a Calvin Klevin model but your acne and sheepish silly smile still made my heart beat twice as fast. Your heart was true then and you loved me then.

The reason for War
Drewy nickson Jun 2013
One man dead before another
over and over, and over.
I see them when i slumber
I hear them when i feast.

Rosy crimson waterfalls gushing from mouths
Just lonely toy soldiers devouring masked boys
These fresh open cuts know no salvation
will never taste sweet paracetamol.

One man kills another, without even a name exchanged
Is this a man's worth? Can he even be blamed?

The boy whispers to his father:
When you go to war
You're not a man anymore

The wedding vows
Drewy nickson Oct 2012
She said:
I am neither witty nor a beauty,
nor illustrious nor an actress
so if u take me u must be either  
a ****** or reckless.

He said:
Well, you see i have met countless sleeping beauties
all of which utterly enchanting and bighearted
but not one such a dauntless daredevil
that she leaves a spartan fainthearted.
Never described as prejudiced or foolhardy
she would faster swim the English channel naked
,and she will do so sublimely,
than see a crime or sin go unstated.

If all you have to offer,
is what you are now
then let me tell you that is no bother,
and only say Wow.
Cause you are totally original
nothing short of awe-inspiring,
absolutely phenomenal
  and so worthy of this ring.

— The End —
