"I am a controversial figure; my friends either hate me or dislike me." ~ Toni Morrison


Can-you...
...describe,
how-you-feel?

Or

Do-you
feel
nothing-at-all?
Will-you,
feel
this?
Take-your-time,
drink-it-in,
it's-only-me,
I-can-wait,
I've-got-time,
I've-got-you,
I'll-never-leave,
I'll-stay-right-here,
by-your-side,
till-the-end-of-time.

Do-you...
feel-this?
Do-you-hear,
my-heart-beat-fast,
against-your-ear?
Can-you...
...describe,
what-I-mean
to-you?

Or

Is-it...
like-me,
to-open-up,
and let-you-in?
Will-you,
be-fine...
if-I,
just-let-you-know,
how-you...
mean everything to me?

Take-this,
slow-ly,
promise-me,
that-you-will,
never-let...
me,

go.

--Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you&#039;re a mile away from them and you have their shoes.<br /> --When life gives you lemons, squirt them in people&#039;s eyes.

I think your poem was pretty good, and made me think. But the format kinda confused me. Please check out my poems too
