![]() Can I Do It?A Poem by Tai-San
Can I Do It?
Can I do what I want?
Can I win you back?
Of all the things I want from you,
Love is where the money is.
I really don’t hate your girlfriend,
It’s just the way she spoke to me was rude.
I just want to win you back,
Is that so hard to ask?
I really do love you,
And I always try to prove it.
When you are upset,
I always want to make you laugh.
When you hurt,
I want to entertain you,
Make you feel better as much as I can make you.
I dream about you every night,
And even when I’m awake.
I wish about taking you away,
And living that way.
But then I log on,
Remember that you already have her.
Will that stop me?
Can it?
I don’t think so.
Everything I say is usually out of love.
When I call you a freak or a dork,
It’s always meant in a loving matter.
That’s just how we joke here.
And when people look through my pictures,
See you and grimace,
I quickly grab my phone away and say,
“If you don’t like him,
Go away.
Because I think he’s adorable.
If you have a problem with him,
Then leave.
‘Cause I never want to see your face again.
He the cutest thing on this earth,
And he has the most wonderful personality.
I love him,
And that’s all that counts.”
And when we do boy friend disses at school,
I always come to your defense.
When she goes, “He plays the guitar,”
I say, “Well, hey! It’s cool.”
When she goes, “He’s got that weird country accent,”
I say, “Yeah, and it’s adorable. Plus, I technically have one too.”
She sighs and says,
“Moving on.
He looks way to creepy.”
That’s when I get mad,
‘Cause it’s not true at all.
So I simply say,
“I think he’s gorgeous in every known way!”
As you can see,
I do much more than you think,
Hoping you’re ‘watching’ me.
I want to show you how I always go quickly to you’re defense,
Even against the seniors,
And of course, my friends.
I’m always trying to call you,
Making up some excuse to use the phone.
I always want to hear your voice,
Because then I don’t feel lonely any more.
Do you see what I’m saying?
Can you hear me speak the words?
I want to win you back.
I’ll even fight a bloody fight,
If only you were my prize.
Do you think I can?
Would I be able to?
What would I have to do?
Tell me.
I’d walk the earth for you.
But only because I love you.
