Some poetry

Anthology

She was a 5 foot 4 glass of wine and I'm a recovering alcoholic... she was tempting at sight
She could walk into a white room and turn it 3 shades more bright
I loved how Her melanin complexion always shined in the light
I try to play it cool but the emotions I can't even fight

She was a unintentional perfectionist
Turning heads like exorcist even on her worst days
Any emotion would look beautiful on her face
She makes "ugly" a curse word
Looking into her eyes I see more than just her
I see myself
I'm falling in love but won't ask for help even though I can swim in this sea of emotions
Drowning I close my eyes and try to sink to the bottom lost in love hoping that she'll save me with mouth to mouth resuscitation
But the love Is deep so I'm slowing fading
Love is unknown to me but I'm a quick learner so what's the point of waiting...teach me
I wanna love you like I'll never love again
I wanna love you till there's no more ink in my pen and I only write with pencils so...
I wanna love you till I'm out of breath
I wanna love you till past death
I wanna show you the difference in different
I wanna love you till it hurts Even though it already does ...
I wanna love you till this hurt goes away
And when it does I still want you to stay 
I wanna find myself beside you after getting lost each others vibe
I wanna smile when though we're not saying anything just looking into each others eyes
I want....I wan...you...the person I fell in love with
The person who made me want to find out what love is ...
But sadly we're not meant to be
Because while I was thinking over 101 ways to love you you weren't thinking about me
Other guys in your phone love is blinding & I was too stupid to see
It never occurred to me why you wanted us to be so low-key
If only you knew how much loving you hurt me
I gave you my all and took out loans when I couldn't cover the rest...
You were my everything until everything went left
And that's when I had to also
...funny how quickly things change
Funny how feelings do the same
Funny how this doesn't hurt the same
Funny how I laugh to hide the pain
Love taught me everything except for the meaning behind the name
