Twalha

So many times I've written, re-written,
and tore papers that I write my poem
about you. I don't destroy them because
I'm shy or terrified that you'll
meet my poetic madness;
I destroy them because "sweet",
"beautiful", "pretty", "wonderful".....can't
describe you perfectly. It's only my heart that can
understand who you are, describing
you with a language that only two, close
souls can understand.....
