Men

Folder: 
Hmm..I wonder...?

A mystery,

An enigma,

My weakness.

Tell me you love me,

And I will die

           die

           die.

Tell me you need me,

And I am yours forever.

Give me those promises,

The ones that are empty

And lies.

Just lead me on,

Say you're mine

           mine

           mine.

Give me forever,

Even just for a while.

Say that you'll kiss me,

Even if you pretend.

Tell me I'm beautiful,

And I'll sigh

         sigh

         sigh.

Just give me that look,

That you want me,

         want me,

         want me.

And you'll have me

Forever,

Even if only in my head.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Men.
Puzzling creatures, that never make any sense.  Heartbreakers, saints, devils in handsome disguises.  If one pays me even a little attention, I fall in love.

I would say that men ARE like this too.
At least the ones that aren't buttheads.
And No, all men aren't buttheads.
Sweet and bitter

Ach ja, horrid creatures. I am scared of becoming a feminist soon, running around town with signs saying "ALLY MEN ARE PIGS INDEED!" Are they, who knows. Love the poem. Scares me that I have become like that. I never thought I would...

I am not asking for understanding, I am not asking for depth, I am not asking for love. I am stating, that in all my 19 years of life, the only thing that kills me, my only weakness, is men. Look at me, kiss me, say hello to me, and these men, all men, any man, is in my head swimming around. Causing confusion, depression, heartache, happiness, lust and love. Give me attention, and my imagination soars...

I could say the same about women. but as jeff foxworthy said. Men are easy to understand. All we want is a beer and we wanna see something naked. I'm sorry if its nothing more deep. but It is a really good poem

I hear ya sista. Curse the oily hydes of men. Except me of course. I liked your poem, it made sense. Sounds like you are pretty jaded. I think this can be applied to women as well though, they can be just as confusing if not more so. I really like the lines "give me forever, if only for a little while" Really nice work. Oh and thanks for the comment at my page. Okay bye bye now. <(((______CRAYOLA AND YOU ROCK_______((()
