Love or a test of faith

A man I knew for such a short time left me. For some reason I am still hooked on him. It has been 10 months since we broke it off. Everything in this poem is true.

It has been almost year

Everyday I wish you were here

 

I can't give a man my all

In my eyes they seem so small

 

Every night I dream of you

You couldent imagine what I've been through

 

When I first met you, you were stuck in a tree

25 years old, yet you seemed free

 

Your eyes were beautiful, hazel and deep

who knew those eyes would make me weep

 

The nights we went camping

Were my most enchanting

 

I watched you from the fire

I couldent help but to admire

 

PBR and keystone beer

Your easygoing attitude and your sense of no fear

 

Your camoflage jacket and your dirty brown boots

Louisiana accent; your hometown roots

 

I listen to country music and I think of you

Songs about dancing, and getting the blues

 

My favorite dress and boots up to my knees

The only thing we noticed was the midnight breeze

 

You kissed me in the rain 

A lucky girl; feeling so vain

 

Sitting between your feet, you ran your fingers through my hair

Who knew my heart would soon need repair

 

Circled by our friends, we sipped on cold beer

Everything in the world had seemed so clear

 

You brought out the paint and called me over

I was the lucky one; the four leaf clover

 

Paint on our faces, ready for battle

We thought we were cool, but only spoke prattle

 

At the close of the night, our friends were asleep

You and I were the only black sheep

 

Laying on a blanket under the stars

You wraped me up in your warm arms

 

Next to the fire, on a blanket we lay

I couldent help but think you wanted to get laid

 

You stared at me with a compassionate look

A mystery to me; you were a closed book

 

I waited for you to make the first move

But to my amazment my theroy was disproved

 

We fell asleep to the waves hitting the shore

In your arms, I was somewhere I'd never been before

 

Now that those days have passed

It seems that these feelings will always last

 

From time to time we cross paths

I am paralyzed by a spell that was cast

 

You see me, but I dont speak

You're absence had left me weak

 

Every morning I wake up

I think of you and Im corrupt

 

I cant speak how I feel

For my heart has yet to heal

 

Was it love or a test of faith

Im not sure, but I hope you relate
