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 really like this poem!  You write so your reader can relate easily.  Reread your last stanza and consider the rhythm of the last 2 lines.  There might be a better way to end it, so it still rhymes but the rhythm stays the same as the entire poem.

I feel like it's not as well written as many poems on this website that were not published, and the wording is a bit akward sometimes.
