I Let You Raise Me

I Let You Raise Me Oopsey daisies! I let you raise me, And I ended up Falling in love. Minded my business; You're not on my wish list, But you were wrapped, And I opened you up. You are my present, my future, And battles of my heart you conquered. As a gift, All I want.... Is your sweetness And the inevitable love unknown.

Ashley, , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT

Welcome to the site. I know you will like it here. I have one suggestion concerning your last line: It is not considered proper grammar to end a sentence with a preposition. How about replacing "unheard of" with "unknown"?

Thanks! I'll take that into consideration Robert.
