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.

Listen to the mustn&#039;ts, child. Listen to the don&#039;ts. Listen to the shouldn&#039;ts, the impossibles, the won&#039;ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.&rdquo; - Shel Silverstein

Life is a lie. Reality is an illusion. And sanity is insanity in disguise.

I love this. So true. Very easy for most girls to relate to. It had good flow, and your emotions came out really well. Excellent :] keep writing. Please check out some of my work, i'd really appreciate it

I&#039;m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe

i loved this so much i used it for my school project, has so much meaning. <3

This is really good. It reminds me of how a lot of high school aged guys are. They're jerks, and some girls just can't help but to fall for them for whatever reason.
