the courtship

06/2011

              I wait with my hopes at our secluded spot

                  anticipating your arrival with flowers in hand

                     the park is always empty this late at night

                       giving us the freedom and leisure we deserve

              I push my hair in the excitement that

                  hangs like static electricity in the air

                     my heart flutters like a child on a joy ride

                       as the city lights gleam through the trees

              I've been daydreaming of this moment

                  holding onto our undiluted thoughts of love 

                     for weeks our texts and phone calls have sufficed

                        but the need to collapse in each others arms

                          has overwhelmed us into complying

 

              I attempt to compose myself, glancing at the time

                 walking around the bench, pacing is more like it

                     the world around drones on, unconcerned with us

                      sitting and rummage through my pockets unconsciously 

                        hands come from behind and cover my eyes, guess who

                                       I smile, already knowing it's you

wasn't expecting a sweet-romance really coming from the other poems I've read through coming from you, but yet I still enjoyed it. no criticism needed. it's written good and has good form/structure with a good sense of emotions inserted about it. you're very talented bro, no doubt about it. keep up the good work :)
