If I could take this
moment and
own it,
hold it,
like a piece of paper,
I'd fold it
and
stow it away,
like
a pocket knife.

If you would be
my wife,
I'd be the
happiest guy in
the world.
You'd be my
girl,
and I'd be your man...
I would hold
your hand and kiss you,
and you'd never
miss me again.

Featured Review

I love this beautifully penned poem, so romantic, delightful and charming. All we have is the present moment in time, the next one is not promised to us and so, we should make the most we can of the present and make beautiful memories for the future. I adore the simplicity of this poem. It is penned without need for flowery language or in depth picturization, which makes it perfect! The longing for someone so special to be your girl and for you to be her man is very finely expressed and wrapped in warm and tender words. Excellent use of various figures of speech throughout the poem and I love both the layout of the poem and the title. An exceptional poem! Thank you for sharing, Thomas...

Thank you. I appreciate the comment.
These are words I'm sure every woman would be knocked off their feet to hear. They're heartwarming and most of all enduring.

I saw you on Booksie. Glad you're here.

Head spins in multi directiond for everyone.
When some one was needed tgey didnt hesitate to let people die or get life sentenve when they very lately realized you know i cant marry you because she doesnt want it , who took the law and order into hands and punished the poor mother and 3 yrs kid for whole life sentence and made them tk get hanged??

The above is firstspin of your head

She saas sedd took law and order into hands and pissed on the house and his married life got tgem divorced created whole mess in life of karen, noe she is gonee

This is second spin

Poor larry fooled the second time by playing with her heart. I will be your anda may be andher in god place

This is the second spin of head with law and orderr

Ruthlessly hurting an innocent poor mother to get rid off her from her way which she thinks. Is a just a piece of flesh can be hurted as she is helpless cant protect.

This another spin

When the mzn leftpoor mother by showing a choker in kids neck please forgive us by being a ravan in srilanka.

This is znoghet spin of head with law and order into hands.


So please people feel now yge right punishment by god itself is spinning head


Yes truth and honesty looks good but one to follow if needs gyts to accept self and tgeir mistakes
Ifs easy to throw stones on head
But to stop innocents and protecting them needs guts
And this poor larry couldnt but just got inyo surrendering his a*s to a dog who is cunning meat eater

Mind it
This is jessy jacob
Never hesirtates tl cut her own leg when poison enters or stop tgat poison tgere itself to not to kill the whols. Ody
I just gave acid rain out of my courtesy if parvathy opens her third eye she will cut the heads.

Be careful we are gods you just stamp they become?? First you do know what you are from inside.
B******s saas
