time

A Poem by V M Smith

all i want from you is time

all i want from you is all the little pieces

that keep running through your mind


i want to lie awake at night

thinking of what will be

until i fall asleep in your arms

sleep with your skin touching mine


all i want from you is time

to explore the little pieces

of what could be in our lives


i want everything to line up

in that jolted perfect way

that life seems to flow through

while we enjoy the ride


all i want from you is time

to learn the ins and outs and motions

of your thoughts and of your mind


i want to be there for the smiles

and share all the crying moments

from now until we're over

hoping never never shows


all i want from you is time

but i've been hoping for a while now

would you consider being mine?

I fully appreciate reviews, especially when they tear apart my work in an attempt to make it better. Rip, tea, break it down. Tell me how you do not like it, how to make it better. I want your opinion. Truly.

This right here is the sentiment I've always enjoyed in your words, but its more than that, it's the authenticity, nothing is ever gaudy nothing is wrapped in pomp, just off the cuff matter of factness.

I've always enjoyed this in your work, I believe it must say something about you as the person you are beyond the screen, whom ever that may be.
