Oh
How I wish
I could rend Time asunder
And take
That first sweet
Fruit of your lips
That kiss
You gave
To her.

I don't know her name
Why you liked
Or loved
Her
But I know
She
Was worth a poem
And I
Have never been worth
A
Single
Word.

I
Have nothing
To offer
In exchange
For that which you have to give
For your virginity
You still possess
And I
Have naught
To offer
But
My heart
Which rests
In
TattersWithPatches
In the milky cage
Of ribs and flesh
I have so little to give
To the perfection
Which you
Embody

I'm broken
In the face of
Your
Softwholesweetness
And I want to be
Your slender
Elven
Queen
I want to be anything
Or everything
I can't stand the pain
Of anyone else
Catching your fancy
I can't stand
That she saw
The sacred beauty
Of your flushed cheeks
Oh God
I need you now
Like a seedling needs the kiss of the sun
Like a babe needs mother's caress
Just please hold me
And pretend
I'm all you could want.
