Poems as Strange as Llamas

Livvy's Confused Love

You give me your jacket

I give you my love.

You saw I was lonely

and picked me up.

I dusted off my dark dress

and took your hand and sat

with you that night

and thanked you for being with me

when I was all alone.

Sometimes you are stubborn

and I go away,

but then I realize

I'm not okay.

You patted my back

this fine afternoon

and outstretched your arms

embracing me and bidding me farewell.

I looked up and saw the moon,

relaying that day

where the kindness of your eyes

and all you had to say

'I thought you were lonely'

and tired and afraid I was

But you took my hand and let me sit

next to you that fine Autumn night.
