Jacob Blake(:

I just can't get him out of my mind.

He drives me completley crazy

with long nights and appealing phrases.

He's got the voice of a mocking bird.

 

There are so many obstacles in my way

They're keeping me from what I want.

I'll pack my stuff and be on my way

Just let me go with one last taunt.

 

Kiss me like you mean it and

Walk away like you want to

don't make this any harder

Give me a sweet goodbye

 

I've got my finger on play, but I want to rewind.

Sometimes my memory is a little hazy

about conversations that sound like mazes

and words I've done heard

 

It's a darn shame she's still here

will she ever leave?

Though she should be here.

I guess I should leave...

 

Sweet talk me like the first time and

kiss me like you mean it.

All night you'll think and ponder

of how you walked away from this.

 

Give me a sweet good-bye

and look at me with those eyes

tell me you love me

I want to hear your lies

in that sweet good-bye.

This is such a sweet little poem to someone you care about. It's personal undertones are easily related to other people in the same situation as yours. The memories and emotional connections in it are very evident. You can tell this was written from the heart. Excellent write! :)
