Ah, long time since I've posted here. Sorry. *sheepish grin* But the good news is that I have lots of new poems for you! Starting with this one, which I've fallen completely in love with. I've been writing quite a few poems with slash pairings. Such a romantic. ^.^ Anyway, go ahead and read. Tell me if you pick up any hidden meanings.

stop caring

you don't need to be concerned with what they think

they, you ask?

them, i correct

grammar is important

and something so wrong

should feel dishonest, shouldn't it?

but it feels so right

maybe it's only wrong in their eyes?

their probing stares

give you the shivers

wear my hair around your shoulders

like a winter scarf

it'll keep you warm

and protect you from the cold

but it is only july, you say

i laugh at your naiveté

there are different kinds of cold

and i can protect you

with my "empty hand"

and roundhouse feet

approximately, i believe

maybe if you could see

too bad the fringe

from your hair covers your eyes

but you're so cute

with your childlike innocence

and love is much too complicated

for you to understand

maybe when you're older

but now, i shall tuck you into bed

and tell you a tale

of a king who fell for a prince

and a jealous princess

and the gossiping townsfolk

but in the end, it turns out well

for all fairy tales have happy endings

ah, if only we were fairies...

Review! Pretty please?
