poem-y stuff....hmmm

[p1nkelefants]

why me?
you could have had any girl
but you chose the confused one.
the girl with pigtails and fishnets
converse falling apart and remains of black nail polish
the kid with the scarred arms and the broken heart.
yu could have had any girl
but you chose to help me understand.
to take me in ur arms and hold me
wash away the writing and the half bitten nail polish
to kiss my scars and heal my broken heart.
but why me?

i was cold that night.
it was late and we could see our breath
as we joked abut the punk rock show.
you to0k my hands in yours
and held them to your chest
told me to stay warm.
so0n i had to leave
but you held me to you and sang.
you asked me not to leave
and i could see the stars
because they refelcted in your eyes.
you leaned down and whispered in my ear
told me to take care and stay warm.
days passed
days of shopping and friends
hugs, laughs, and holding hands.
and all the while you held my heart
in the palm of your hand.
when you finally kissed me
it was as if the world stopped.
the universe held its breath for you and me.
