Not So Irrational

Your arms are too

Long,

Your nose is too

Pointy,

Your ears are too

Big,

Your eyes are too

Small;

I couldn’t

Love you more.

Each flighty kiss we may

Share

Couldn’t make me

Hunger

For less,

Each passionate word you

Whisper

Couldn’t lift me

Higher

Off these

Clouds.

There must be some

Way

To stop these

Roller coaster

Dreams.

Think, Girl,

Be rational.

 

 

This thirst

Pulls me closer to

Home.

A thirst for

More

Of everything;

More knowledge,

More reality,

More world,

More life.

But with each

Smile,

I couldn’t

Wish for more

Beauty.

For,

Whatever you may be

Lacking,

He would substitute;

Whatever he has in

Wanting,

You may be his

Everlasting perfection.

No more

Thinking,

Love,

Unlock your heart.

Love this poem... so real and touchable. Sometimes poetry gets so fluffy, but this is sharp and to the point. I like how it's choppy, that's how love is.

love this poem. so pure and real, and unassuming. would be great to grow older but remain unskeptical, able to believe in the good in humanity

This is a beautiful look at love - when you're able to look past the flaws and imperfections a person has to the heart of them. Good job.

Kinda choppy, my guess is a child? Like more rhyme, good rhythm. Loved the message, ot the emotion. Just a little polidh would do wonders. Write on.....

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
