His Happiness

This is a poem that I wrote about my feelings for my current boyfriend. The poem was written before we got together though.

You came to me when I least expected it,

On a lonely Christmas night.

I was all alone with no one to talk to

When you suddenly came around.

We got into one of the best conversations,

Even other people told us what they thought.

It was that night that I started falling for you,

The sweet side of you that I got to know.

You had just had your heart broken

From someone who must be blind and stupid.

I was just simply looking for

That special someone to turn my life around.

The next day we just kept talking

And talking as the time flew by.

We even had one of the longest conversations,

Staying awake past the beautiful sunrise.

As the days went on,

I got to know you even better.

And as that happened,

I completely fell for you.

My life is now different

And will never be the same.

I just don’t want to lose you

For that is my worst nightmare.

However,

All I want is for you to be happy.

You deserve the best in life and love

And I really hope that you get it.

What that is though,

I do not know.

No matter how much I want it to be me,

 

I just want you to be with the right person.

Author's Note

I know that the poem itself could probably use a lot of work. When it was written though, I just wanted a way to let him know how I felt and where my heart was. The image that I used for it is actually the design for a tattoo that I want that he drew for me.

Reading this piece is like reading a musical essay. There's a flow in the thought as it begins in the soft and mellow imagery of the "On a lonely Christmas night" and then it flows, just like a song to a high chorus. The lines get smaller and smaller, indicating a faster pace in your writing, a faster heartbeat... And then a skipped line. The poem ended.

This poem very honest and sincere. I could hear you talking and I could definitely imagine you reading this one aloud to him. Very nice piece.
