Jerk MAG
January 2, 2009
I love your voice,
your soft brown hair.
I love your eyes
and love your stare.
I love your laugh,
your cocky smirk,
your stupid jokes.
You precious jerk,
you know I do.
I want my hands
all through your hair
each treasured strand.
I’m wrapped around
your finger still.
Am I yet yours?
Your love does kill
the things I hold
so close to me
and yet you’re the
best jerk I see.

I love this poem. This poem gives a good insight on the author’s emotions. I agree that it sounds a little desperate, but don’t most people feel in some point of their life desperate to gets someone’s attention. When you love someone everything you do may seem okay to you, but other people may see it as being desperate. Don’t listen to anyone just do what your heart tells you.

Ahaha this is so true. The abrupt lines really get the terse, semi-annoyed nature of it without being harsh. Nicely done. :)

i really enjoyed reading this poem, it describes exactly what a girl/guy goes throughs. the fact that you're really into someone, even though you know you shouldnt feel anything for them.

I found it interesting. I like the way the writer listed a bunch of beautiful things about one person and at the described them as a jerk. I think its the kind of thing you would dedicate to your awful ex.

I really liked this poem especially because it expresses feelings of the author towards their girlfriend/friend. I love the author's expression of their feeling in this poem. I also liked it's message of a friend. It's poem structure flows well as well.
