Not

Sweep me off my feet, why don’t you?

Just whip out your friggen white steed and carry me

the hell away from here.

Do you treat all girls this way?

I hope so, you rascal, otherwise you’re overstepping your bounds.

So let’s get this straight:

you are not mine, I am not yours, and you’re

(so sweet I can’t breathe)

just being nice. And that’s all.

 

I hope.

Dear Emily Rose,

Another complex and insightful piece. Your captivation with this person, but your hoping that this is all there is and that it won't be pressed to the next level, is marvelous. Your enjoyment of his personality, with the abstract detactment is wonderful to see. Again, you show a masterful understanding of both yourself and the people around you.

Great stuff.

Best regards,

Rick

wow, i like this.
it reminds me of the feeling you get when you wonder whether or not you're falling in love, and you're not sure if you want to.
very nice for two minutes :)

Do, don't, yes, no! Sounds like fickle nature at work. Never entirely sure. Edging forward. Caught in the adventure of it all. Unable to go back, but... And with the intelligence to see what is going on and nail it down in words. It may have only taken minutes to write, but it may have been brewing for longer. Like poems that start with verbs and like that (fun bit in brackets).

For a two minute drill not bad? What would four minutes yield?

This was awesome!
I feel like this sometimes... but I'm quite sure my situation is slightly different.

After I was done reading this I was trying to think about which line was my favorite and.. I couldn't choose!
They were all excellent!
Great work :)
