Oh, Sweet

So innocent looking, I wear your heart On my bracies. For the town to see and to know, You could have been mine, If I wanted. You could have been here. If it wasn't for the best, Then why did you go? I need to know. I had a crush on you, But I couldn't let you know. I wouldn't have it spoil my plans. But now, I'd give it all away, Just to have you stay. If you'd promise.. Promise me, promise me, Promise me this: Trust and loyalty, Secret virginity. A sea full of anythings, All for protecting me. Shoot down our enemies. Holding out for specialities. Spoiling for uncertainties. Love for eternity. Free me, Free me. ~Written in 2005 (Monday, 31st, January) when I was sixteen.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
