A Few Poems

Only One

you're the only one
who thinks I'm precious when I sleep
who doesn't care about how much it costs
who loves me for who I am
who believes that I can do anything.

thank you so much
for smiling at me
for listening to me
for laughing with me
for teaching me
for loving me.

you don't know
how much it means
to me.

For Because

why did I come?
for because
it isn't Christmas
for because
I wanted to see you
for because
you're my sis.
why did I come?
for because
I love you.

Always Know

you always know
exactly what I want
even before I ask.
you always know
exactly what to say
even before I say anything.
you always know.
you just always know.
and I never do.

-A few really short pieces I've written in the past few days.

"Only One" is a thank you poem to a girl I always tend to take for granted. She'll do anything for me and expect nothing in return. She is someone I never thought I'd be friends with, but whenever she comes into town, I'm glad I've met her. She's awesome. <3

"For Because" is for my 'sister'. She headed up to BYU-I last Sunday, and I promised her that I'd be there to see her off. Circumstances made it so that I probably couldn't show, and she said it'd be fine if I didn't come because she'd be back in a few weeks. But I'd promised. And I made it. She said she'd be mad if I showed up. So I showed up. <3

"You Always Know" is a tidbit I wrote for both of those girls because they ALWAYS KNOW. Kinda creepy, but oh-so-nice. <3-
