The Way It Feels

a poem for my boyfriend... ILY

My immagination

cannot create the same feelings,

as the reality of the way

things actually are.

 

The longing I feel for your arms to wrap

around me,

is unbearable when we

are apart.

It's as if I am

missing a part of myself.

 

The way your eyes

look at me,

as if I'm the only

one worth looking at.

 

The smile you give me,

is for me and me alone.

When you smile at others,

It is not the same.

 

The way you want to

protect me,

from every evil

and every person,

just makes me happy

inside.

 

The way you are possessive,

of me

and will let potential competitors,

in your eyes at least,

know not to lay a hand on me.

 

But this I must confess,

for your stubborn mind needs to know,

I love you

and

you alone.

 

You need not worry of others,

who think they,

of all things,

can break the bond

between us.

 

They way it feels,

for me

to know what its

like to be loved,

is the sweetest emotion

I've ever felt.

 

And,

 

I am determined,

for you

to know exactly what

I mean.

 

And,

 

that you know

what its like

to be loved.

 

Because.

 

When I look at you,

in my eyes,

you are the only one worth looking at,

worth knowing that the

look is meant only for

you.

 

The smile,

I give to you,

is yours and no one else's.

It is much more brighter,

much more loving,

and is meant for only you.

 

The way I want to

protect you,

protect you from the

sadness the world so

harshly dishes out.

 

I want you to understand,

 

that I don't want anyone else

hanging all over you,

like they own you.

And that I will truly

do everything,

to get them away from

you.

 

Because.

 

I dont want anyone,

anyone,

trying to get between

us.

 

Because.

 

After knowing how it feels,

to be loved,

what would I do?

What would you do?

 

I want you to know

how it feels

to be loved

by me.

 

I love you.

Forever and Always,

Always and Forever.

I can tell by your words that you truly love this person. The emotion you've illustrated for us is not only glowing with life, but real and genuine - that is something many writers struggle or simply fail to create.

My only comment is this:

Though the poem you've written is beautiful, it needs something. To me it feels as though it's lacking some sort of concept to tie the entire thing together. There's a lot of new ideas being told, but nothing to remind us of the main point or feeling.

Think about it this way, in a song, there is often a few lines that are repeated in order to connect the entire piece together.

Overall I did love it. I especially loved how I could feel and understand your emotions.

Very lovely.
