You.

A poem written for a special someone. It wasn't supposed to be romantic, but I think it kinda came out that way.

I wish you could see what I see

because...

 

You're really kinda beautiful

I bet you didn't know

Every time I glance your way

I'm dazzled by your glow

 

You surely think I'm lying

But trust me when I say

You're perfectly imperfect

In every single way

 

You scoff at me and run away

But what you just don't see

Your every imperfection

Make up my cup of tea

 

You say your hair is limp and dull

Yet it shimmers in the light

You say your eyes are non-descript

Then why are they so bright?

 

You're sure I must be crazy

Must be out of my mind

But really, ask the boy next door

Your heart he longs to find

 

You silly, beautiful, wonderful girl

Ignorance must be part of your charm

One day I'll show you and the world

My silly, beautiful, wonderful girl

This was sweet and had great sing song quality to it like greeting card verse tends to have (GOOD greeting card verse) lol It had a simple, natural flow which I enjoyed. It also had a ring of sincerity and honesty in the simplicity of the rhyme. very nice.
