“I’m selfish, impatient, and insecure. I make mistakes. I am out of control and at times, hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you don’t deserve me at my best.”
- Marilyn Monroe


He loves me, he loves me not.
Each day a different petal,
All differing from the first.
Like picking a name from a hat,
A beautiful mystery.

If the day is a not,
It's a complete loss.
I don't see you, I don't hear you,
I don't taste the pureness of your laugh.
No intoxication of you smile,
Or mesmerizing over your voice.
No simple bliss from your embrace,
Just the coldness of your absence.

But on those rare days,
When luck is on my side,
I see you, feel you,
Touch you, love you.
I see the light that is your soul,
Feel the warmth that is your caress.
Touch the silk that is your skin,
And love what is deep within.

So a petal I'll pull,
From this bloom of confusion,
A day of fate awaits,
He love me, he loves me not.

I'm not very good at free verse. I just thought this was cute and had fun writing it. (I was actually in Spanish class!) Ha ha, but I hope you guys like it(:
