LuckyA Poem by StephanieFor my amazing boyfriend :D He's leaving in October for Marines boot camp...
At first glance I never would've known
What was about to happen. How could I have? Your red pants, bleached hair and snakebites didn't exactly match my plain jeans, highlights or pierced ears. But one night changed everything. We shared music, you bought me a popsicle, there was a hand holding contest... I like you. I still couldn't think straight, knowing I was caught in another crush. But it was different than the others. We fought for a ball When all I wanted to do was kiss you, And we got closebutnotquite…. You whispered “I like you” My heart whispered back. There was a kiss a la French… I really like you. “You’re such an odd couple.” We know, and we love it! Our friends look on shocked, What an unexpected pair… A pair that grew closer each day Over ramen pasta and silly games Coming to love each other’s quirks. You love my klutziness, I adore your laugh! I want to say it, but don’t know how I don’t want to scare you… So I coded it… ikki laboomba you. I kinda love you. Day by day, I saw you change Open up to me, become more social And I saw myself change, Felt my heart fall more in love… But felt it being slowly suffocated At every mention, any thought of you leaving. I put a smile on, Even though you told me I didn’t need to. I want to be as brave as you, just as strong. I love you. I never knew it would be you. The one I’d notice, crush on, kiss, fall in love with. We’re so lucky. The ones no one thought would be together. We’ve beat the odds so far And we’ll do it again. I’ll miss you every day you’re gone But I’m so proud of you. I love you Arron! © 2013 StephanieReviews
