Instant Poetry — Just Add Love

Thank you for making my life worth living again,

Even if it was only temporary

Thank you for making my mornings fun to wake up to

With just a few simple words

Thank you for showing me that I am worthy of compliments

And how to accept them with grace

Thank you for filling my heart with happiness and hope

But NO thanks for letting it all slip away.

 

Sometimes I think about how hard and fast I fell for you

And it frightens me to say the least

I think of how silly it must have sounded to you when I told you

I loved you before I knew you

I feel like there's a fire in my heart when I recall how it felt

To be held and touched by you

I could so easily go to sleep in your arms

Because that's where I felt safe.

But not anymore, my love…Not anymore.

I'll eventually get over it, I'm pretty sure.
