Butterfly Effect

A Poem for Him

By Micaela LynnPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

“Fluttery” nervousness wound up into knots of emotion,

will soon enough escalate into causing an explosion, of

Happiness, love, passion, and desire,

indicating a clenched anticipation,

but will most of all, inspire,

the confidence needed to ask you this question,

But please bear with me, hopefully this will leave an impression…

You are funny, loving, unique, and kind,

Supportive, optimistic, and always on my mind.

From the moment I met you, to our first date in Boston,

there was always a hint of a smile, when I found myself lost in,

Your eyes, for they act as the window to your soul, I can see it, and it's so beautiful…

it was then that I knew, and I set a new goal.

Then boot camp came, and

I had many ups and downs, and even tumble and a fall,

I got to a low point, to where I almost gave up, and didn’t want to continue at all,

but I then would think

the memories of us together was what pushed me through, I wanted to stay strong, for at that point I knew,

I was “half way there, living on a prayer…” singing that song purposely, to push me along.

you were cheering me on back at home, (and that's dope) …

saying stuff like, “Yo! You can do it, I believe in you, don’t give up hope!”

Life works in mysterious ways, for whenever I think about you I get caught in a daze,

So here it is, I’m about to ask you that question, so before I let this poem end, will you please be my boyfriend?
