I love your voice,
your soft brown hair.
I love your eyes
and love your stare.

I love your laugh,
your cocky smirk,
your stupid jokes.
You precious jerk,

you know I do.
I want my hands
all through your hair
each treasured strand.

I’m wrapped around
your finger still.
Am I yet yours?
Your love does kill

the things I hold
so close to me
and yet you’re the
best jerk I see.

&ldquo;The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only.&rdquo;

This is really good!

It reminds me of a Roleplay I do with my friend, I have a character, Lavi, who's of course a total jerk, and my friend's character, ayam, falls in love with him despite it.

This so sounds like something a lot of girls can relate to, and I absolutely love it, it's spectacular.
