Teach Me

A Poem by Lexi Richard

Teach me how

to live like you

with wide eyes

and colorful dreams

Teach me how

to find the world

ignore the bad

and see beauty

Teach me how

to think like you

with gold thoughts

and diamond heart

Teach me how

to love like you

and I'll learn

as I fall apart

-l.r.

I really liked this. Reminded me that love is not just affection. It's wanting to be taught stuff and be shown stuff through the other's eyes. Really good poem I loved it.

Beautiful write.
Was well written out, and very deep and meaningful.
I wish someone would teach me all this to.
Its hard to see life in such light, be good if we all did though.
Great write :)

Sounds like the voice or narration is saying if they "think" or "love" like the "you" in this poem-- they know they will "fall apart." So the message of the poem is saying they won't "think" or "love" like the "you."
If that makes sense:D lol Anyway-- thought provoking poem:)
