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.

I just had to comment on this one. It is perfectly stated, simple, and I love it. I know you have gotten a million comments, but I just wanted to say nice job, and I know how you feel!

I liked it. It's good, but I mostly liked it because I can really really relate to it.
