Being Mine?

Katelyn's picture

I'll try to keep this simple
To keep it to the point.
Forget about the foreplay
Forget about the show
I only think there's something
That you ought to know.
So here's a question,
Not a quiz,
No test like any other.
No fancy stuff,
Just poetry
Written for you
And not another.
Here's a thought
I've set to wonder:
Would it be alright with you
In any place inside your mind
Could you ever consider
The thought of being mine?

so very sweet and adorable, and nice rhythm, as well. :] it's kind of a happy poem, hopeful, not despairing, because of the way it swings when you read it.

That's how I intended it, so I guess it worked. Thanks!
