by jackie-harrington

You keep me on my toes to the point where you brush past me and I jump Our future brought untold fear and I was never okay with it until now Everything you say to me somehow registers deeply If you aren't always near me I feel this growing hole in my stomach I want this to work out more than I want to eat peanut M&M;'s or play basketball You seem to read me like one of your books but your books usually take longer Your past presents itself greatly in your present If I wasn't ready for that I would have ran I try to hide my past so it doesn't effect you I only want my present and future to reach you I might have almost said those 3 words but I never regret what I say But then again you almost said it too so we're even I just want you close to me because my life has never been stable and you seem like a rock compared to everything else I know you check my poems to see if there is something about you If I could properly find my words there would be something new everyday You are just perfect to me and I guess it took me awhile to see perfection I guess I just really... like you Maybe I'll say it one day If you're happy, I'm happy
