I Still
I can't not think of you- You keep my mind occupied,
I wonder how I survived- Keeping it all inside.
The time passed by and before I knew it you were gone,
I waited so long- I thought I could do it in a poem.
Needless to say....I was wrong.
And though we have long since reunited- I'll never forget that day,
The jealousy that overcame me- The sick feeling when you went away.
I find myself doing it again today- There's really no explanation,
You've been more than just good to me- You've exceeded expectations.
But you have expectations and I know I'm not what you wished for,
A kid who came up without much, so he doesn't really give much more.
Though you deserve much more- Let me explain it this way,
All those things I once felt- They're still here to this day.
It's still hard to look at you when you get all made up,
And you still leave me breathless when you put on your make up.
I'm grateful you never gave up and gave me a second chance,
I'm glad you decided to wait up and give me a second glance.
I'm happy you didn't judge me- I love you for loving me,
When I cried, for hugging me- For being patient and not rushing me.
I still get chills when you touch me- My insides are blushing,
How could someone so lost be loved by something so lovely?
I know to you it's natural but you have no idea what you gave me,
More than just a feeling of worth- Basically you saved me.
Yet, you still amaze me- You live a life so crazy,
Full time student and worker- But you still find time to call me baby.
It's crazy.
Cuz I still get excited when the phone rings- I still look forward to seeing you,
A one hour lunch is bittersweet- I cherish our time I but hate leaving you.
I still look forward to summer- Cuz it'll give us more time together,
And even though I enjoy going out- I look forward to just laying together.
I still love the pajamas and how comfortable you are with no make up,
I enjoy the little fights we have cuz it gives a chance to make up.
And everyday I wanna wake up- See you then go back to sleep,
Just so I can wake up to your face again- So we can be face to face again.
I still miss you when you're not here- I don't know who's to blame,
And even though I say I hate it- I love the little nick names.
And I can't not think of you- In my mind I picture you,
Freeze frame it in time- It's exactly how I pictured you.
I never thought this could be true- How was I able to steal you?
You might not think the world loves you- But always remember....
I still do.
