Before I write my next poem, I just want to hand it to Melissa for designing this blog and for giving me such wonderful advice about my poetry. From now on, I will decide to try to write "in the moment" poems.
Secretly
I'm wanting you
If you ever meet me
I'm hoping you want me too.
I noticed you from across the room
At my friend's party
Avoiding your beautiful gaze
Is very hard because it's so hearty.
Hark!
They're starting to play my favourite song!
Will something happen for me finally?
I've waited so long.
You asked me to dance
Gone were the heartbreaks of the past
You went and,
Saved the best for last.
We were moving
We were face-to-face
It's as if we were the only ones
Dancing in this place.
The end of the song is near
As we were in the abyss
When you leaned over
And gave me my first kiss.
When you kiss, it's magical
Especially after you dance,
It's as if this was a turning point in my life
I'm absolutely going to take this chance!!!

Aw, thank you Franco! That was so sweet. I feel all special now. *blushes*
I have to say, this is my favourite poem, by far, that you have written. It wasn't too long, and it had an older feel to it (in regards to lexicon and rhythm use). I quite enjoyed it. Good work! :)
Nice stuff man, but have you ever considered writing as a career??
Hey Amanda,
I have considered writing as a career, but I need a steady profession first. I've decided not to pursue creative writing though. Thanks for the vote of confidence:)
Hey Franco,
Thanks for the email. Best of luck to you too.
Peace,
Mat
