Array ( [sid] => 179692 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Would You? [time] => 2014-11-14 22:42:56 [hometext] => one of the few 'love' poems i have...and one of my favorites. [bodytext] => Would You?

on the only piece of paper in this place,
i'll paint the words i should say to your face.
but you're not even real, so this will surely do,
since i'm fairly sure the future hates me and you.

you should have some Fire. Intensity. Depth.
you should be in love with me until after i die.
you should sigh softly when i kiss you.
you should smile secret smiles that make me blush.
you should cook two things better than anyone.
so should i.
you should want me around you, because I am Good.
you should laugh liquid out of your nose, because of me.
you should find the lighter side of your doom...darker.
you should be okay with owning me.
you should be 'so damn stubborn' occasionally. rarely.
you should have been waiting for me, and know it. and KNOW it.
you should care that...well, just care.
you should expect passion, like a poison that keeps you alive...
and feverish, flush with a light head, quickened breath,
and a need to want my desire.
you should find me soon, because i miss you.
you should be thinking about me...in the back of your mind,
right before you fall asleep...
then we dance on the moon in your dreams.
you should be thinking of me before
the moment before you open your eyes,
even while you're with him.

What's funny is that you think I'm not real, but here i am...waiting...
wishing.
wishing you were real, too.

Umm Josh, I have never read anything from you, but this is simply incredible. This poem has everything. Secret smiles, nose liquids, poison passion. it only lacks unicorns man. Seriously though, this is magnificent. I am a little jelly.
