Description
and you are fleeting-leaving me behind
for my heart to break all over
a tiny airport
(we'll never be in love
with one another again)
my biggest fear being-
you will marry your first love
(i am not your marriage material)
maybe all we are/were
is/was great sex
(we rarely do "make love")
i don't want the ring
or the perfect (rational/comfortable) life
i don't want your freckled nose
waking me up pressing into my skin
as you kiss my neck in the morning
i do not want my options taken away (i am too young)
you are too much effort to touch
(doth i protest too much?)

"we'll never be in love with one another again" this line scratched at my heart, and memories of sentiment and nostalgia flooded my lungs. then i read the line "my biggest fear being-you will marry your first love"
you dont know how much this scares me too.

Hey!
Being a man myself I feel slightly offended by the above post. Only slight though, I know I've been thinking the same thing about the opposite sex many, many times.
Sometimes I feel love might be more trouble than it's worth. And straight away get repulsed by myself for thinking that thought. In my case it just might be true though.
Anyway, it's a great poem. Very good ending (as per usual).
Hope you'll feel better.

Hehe, it was the above poster that offended me, not you. Anyway it was just sarcasm so don't worry about that.

Men are a curse to the female kind. I am addicted to one myself. I thought I was over him since 4 months ago when he started dating someone else. I was doing so well. i was my own person, I was over him. never thought of him. Damn him for coming to me in the early morning, drunk, telling me he misses me, my smile, my voice singing to him (it's a bittersweet, beautiful hell that comment brought to my memory) said he was sorry for hurting me. Took me all of a minute before the terrible longing flooded back. This reminds me of what it was like when he came back and tried to take me back. I didn't let him. Not on the outside. But inside I'd betrayed myself and I hate myself for it. Okay. You know what. I should just write a poem, lol. THis is awesome and the part. . .
waking me up pressing into my skin
as you kiss my neck in the morning
it brought to thought the feelings (I was already thinking of it, but I'll lie for a moment to myself)
This was awesome. I love it and I hope you start feeling better. I will if you will. lol
