A little note beforehand:
Okay man. Seriously. Another random fave on this old thing? I just... If you really liked it that much, PLEASE go check out the rest of my writing at :iconcandicedionysus:! I have gotten SO MUCH better than when I wrote this one, and I'm liking it less and less myself, so please, please check out the rest of my writing!

Thank you,
Candice Wozniak Dionysus

I thought and thought on what to give you,
Nothing special came to mind.
Then I realized, cause I love you,
I think I'll just give you something
To make you feel like you can fly.

A crush is fleeting, like summer memories,
Lust fades, like a tan in the winter.
Infatuation can melt, like ice,
And leave you empty, as black as white.
But love is forever, like a diamond,
Love is what I give.

People wonder why I love you,
Wonder what you have to give...
But I just smile, because, no matter what,
I love you for you, thats all it is.

So love is what I have for you,
And what I'll continue to give.
Because since I met you,
Loving you is the only way to live.
Happy Birthday, baby.
I wrote this for my boyfriend, for his birthday.

Somehow this is my most popular piece. I'm glad, I suppose, even though he tried to break my heart and we've been split up for a few years.

Thank you all who have faved and/or commented. I appreciate it. Anyone who likes this one should check out my writing account, [link] and let me know what you think of the rest of my writing! ^_^

I can't believe this crappy old poem keeps getting favorites randomly. The next person to fave; please comment and tell me WHY you like it. >;3

I love the use of techniques you use. This quality of writing isn't something that you see everyday. Stunning.
