My girlfriend asked me to write a poem inspired by her, which I did. However, I wanted something unexpected, so this is what I came up with. Hopefully, anyone reading it will like it as much as she did.
My poem:
The sun peeks out and the birds start to sing,
she writes your name on her notebook with care.
Her heart goes boom-boom like it’s tied to a string,
she thinks about you and it’s like you are there.
The world is still sleepy, all quiet and slow,
but she’s wide awake with a face all aglow.
She sees you in raindrops that splash on her nose,
in the waves at the beach where she likes to play.
Her love is like a blanket that wraps her so close
with bits of fun stuff from each happy day.
When you’re not around, time feels super long;
she hums to herself your favorite song.
When a girl loves you, big problems seem small,
nothing is too hard when she thinks of your smile.
She’d swim through a river or climb a tall wall
just to hang out with you for a little while.
She’s not loud about it, but her love is super strong;
it could move mountains or make flowers grow long.
At night when it’s dark and things get real scary,
she’ll be like a nightlight, all shiny and bright.
Her love is like a ship that’s big and not weary
that sails through big storms in the middle of night.
‘Cause in her heart, you’re the coolest treasure,
a love so big it’s hard to measure.
She likes all your weird stuff, the things others don’t,
the way that you laugh or the faces you make.
In her mind you’re the best, even when others won’t
see how awesome you are, even if you’re not fake.
Your jokes and your frowns, your good days and bad
are all stored in her heart, and that makes her glad.
When a girl loves you, time gets really weird:
it flies when you’re together, having fun,
but crawls when you’re apart, which she’s always feared,
till you’re back together and the fun has begun.
She doesn’t count days or look at the clock
but counts all the times that you guys talk.
Her love is not all perfect, ’cause nothing really is;
it’s warm and it’s messy like finger paint art.
It’s a story that’s always changing, full of quiz,
a big adventure where you both play a part.
It’s about learning stuff and sometimes falling down
but getting back up with a smile, not a frown.
So when a girl loves you, you’re pretty lucky
with something as old as the trees and the sea.
When she looks at you, it’s home, all comfy and snuggy,
a love that’s more special than any TV.
‘Cause when she loves you, she’s chosen to be
your best friend forever, for all to see.
And as stars say goodbye to the morning sun,
as the world wakes up to start a new day,
her love stays as strong as when it begun,
a promise she keeps in her own special way.
When a girl loves you, it’s the best gift ever,
like a fun dance that goes on forever and ever.
