A Small Poetry Book

Only a Few

Only a Few

Remember when I could look into your eyes

And tell the whitest of lies?

That I could never like you

You were made for only a few

It's not that you should care

I know that wouldn't be fair

I was just hoping that you could see

All the desire coursing through me

Maybe then you would hold me in your arms

Sleeping, as we ignore the morning alarms

Making every second together count

Loving the love that we had found

Do you remember that time we hung out?

And you were so high, you didn't know what you were talking about?

I recall that day at your house

You said the recipe for love takes less than an ounce

You and I smoked a bit of the potion

The effects came just after a small portion

But I knew for a fact that this was not love

You offered me more but I had had enough

You're just a young boy, so you can't be blamed

You haven't yet felt love but you know pain

Unfortunately, I know that feeling too

And it's all because you were made for only a few
