Being with you

By VagrantGypsy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I look at everyone else around me and Don't know why I'm standing here with them. They can't understand me and won't even try. Laughing at all the wrong times causing awkward pauses and hateful glares. These are the times I think of you most. When I am walking behind my friends alone,unnoticed. I remember how much fun you are and that you'd love me no matter when I laughed, Since you'd probably be laughing too. It reminds me of smoke filled days and intoxicated nights, And that time we huddled under a picnic table in the dark sipping gin and lighting marlbros at the YMCA because it was -10 degrees out. And then I lost my glove, so you went back the next day and found it for me. It's these memories that make me grateful to see you everyday and sulk on the weekends you go away. I would choose to be with you over everyone else, no matter how much we fight. That just makes me appreciate you even more, Knowing you would do anything for me and vice versa. As long as we have each other everything will turn out fine because Nothing else matters. Written November 1st, 2001 © on Nov 22 2001 03:24 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
