All I want

Sometimes I just
need to be hold
close.

I have days  where
my strength is low,
I am not as strong as I thought.

Sometimes I need
to be left alone,
but most of the time
I want you here,
with me,
catching my bluff.

You calm me down,
make me laugh,
make me think
of my foolish,
sometimes arrogant
screen.

I need you here,
I just can't see you leave.

The last drop of
my heart may break.

I want to give you
the world,
but I can only
offer you a bus ride
home,
beers at the beach
along the sight
of the moon and the stars,
movies you haven't seen,
long talks of future worlds
and believes.

You deserve better
than a crazy guy
shooting for the stars
in the long run.

But you are the antidote
for all the wrong
I did in the past.

To be a part of your
happiness is all
I want.

There is such human honesty in this poem. Sometimes I want to be held, sometimes left alone, call me on my s**t (oops bluff)
calm me down,
make me laugh,
make me think
of my foolish,
sometimes arrogant
screen.

Beautiful poem to someone who sees you for the man you are, for the dreamer with a scarred past. And is simply asking to be loved.

Heartfelt, I may not have a lot to offer but I can give you my whole heart. Nicely pen'd honesty here.

This is such an honest write, Leandro. Everything in here just screams for truth. You have some beautiful stanzas ~

"Sometimes I need

but most of the time
I want you here,

catching my bluff."
