sappy but true

[karimelissa]

i love her completely
and i never even tried
somewhere between
the mp3's and tears
she came into my heart & set up camp

and there she sits now
toasting a marshmallow nonchalantly
and i want her back where she almost was
and i want her to lay next to me like we almost did

and i want us to know each other differently
and be happy mostly and sometimes sad
and i love that with her
how its never really a mystery
how she's feeling and why
and its so nice to actually
understand what's going on

i want her
dimples, eyelashes, impish grin
i want the good, i want the bad
blue days
blue nights
even the fights
we'd inevitably have

i want it all
the moments in between
the extasy and the pain
those precious times where
her toes rest on me knee
and she's deep in thought
and her nose wrinkles up
when a cat litter commercial comes on

and i know she knows i love her
but i don't suppose she knows just how
because change comes slow for me
and my trees always take a while
to fruit out
