I'd like to let you know
You're everything I need
but not enough

I'd like to let you know
You make me smile all the time
but not constantly

I'd like to let you know
You are the boy I want to marry
but not spend forever with

I'd like to let you know
You are perfect in every way
but you're so screwed up

I'd like to let you know
I don't know
Anything

This poem seems as if something I would write. I like the structure and the word use to confuse the reader and finally stating the conclusion at the end. I love it! If you're interested, I just recently got one of my poems published on my profile. It's called Autumn's Remembrance. Thank you so much for all your comments and great work!
