All About

by Beautiful Chaos   Mar 20, 2012


It's all about you
Your likes, your wants, your needs
I bend, bow and babble
Everything clear, before the mouth engages
And then it's all about you
Your eyes I never want to see filled with hurt
Caused by me
Your kind heart I never want to beat with bitterness
Caused by me
Your deep soul I never wish to see drift away
Because of me

It's all about me
I'm selfish
Happiness is like a drug
My personality is addictive
And I live on your smile
Your warmth and comfort
The way you make me feel like a real person again
Capable of caring and loving
Capable of more than just merely existing

It's all about us
What we're willing to give
What we can stand to take
The worth we place on this thing we've started
The effort we believe it deserves
The passion with which we pursue it
An evolution or decline
Either way, a choice

It's all about love and longing
Want and need
Selfless acts of selfish happiness
A battle of wanton and wills
Culminating in either the end or beginning
Of the best days of our life

    This was a nice poem with emotion expressed. I like how you kept transforming the poem from you, to him, then to us. And ending with how love should be. Nice write. :)
