A Gift for You
Does He want me, I can never tell
The constant wondering hurts like hell
I've given him everything short of my life
But the day he asks for it I won't think twice
My heart is his and his alone
Being without him makes my soul groan
I've never felt a love as strong as this
Just hearing his name makes me long for his kiss
I miss the times I spent in his arms
His beautiful eyes and undaunting charm
And now he hints he feels the same
More likely my hearts playing a wishful game
First of all you may have noticed that the poem and title don't really match up. The story behind that is when I wrote the poem (5 minutes ago) I couldn't be bothered to get up and find paper so I grabbed the first thing I could find to write on, a peice of cardboard. When I finished the poem and was trying to come up with a title for it I flipped the cardboard over and on it was written, A Gift for You, and that saying suited me. So that's where the title came from. Also this is my first attempt at a love poem and obviously I sorta failed miserably because the poem is still really sad and not quite as lovey as I had planned. But I don't think I did a bad job. And also props to Kovier, because his poem inspired me to write. Thanks.

Sweet.
And I got props!
I think you are a true artiste; not only did you write a poem on a piece of cardboard BUT you named the poem are the cardboard.
