My Poetry

What I Deserve

I have felt the butterflies dance,

I have stumbled with my words,

I have blushed at your smile,

but I've always wondered where

the line between crushing on

someone and falling in love goes.

I wonder what it's like

to love someone with

all you've got, to no

longer see straight,

and to ache for someone,

despite their mistakes.

I wonder what it's like

to fall for someone,

even for their flaws,

their aggressive moods

and their mysterious hearts.

I wonder what it's like to

love someone, to allow

someone to have your

heart, to have someone

make your darkest days

seem just a little bit bright.

They say you accept the love

you think you deserve, and I

wonder what love belongs

to me, and which I accept

and maybe deserve.
