Description
--don't misunderstand me
when i say you have pretty eyes,
and lips to die for,
since i value my life.
i didn't buy you a drink
to unlock your chastity...
tell me something i dont know
besides the fact you're easy-
going.
i hope your eyes don't deceive you,
when you see streetsigns on the way to me;
i am not the "princess' highway"
that leads to your prince.
you were stumbling onto the road,
don't misunderstand;
i was pulling you away from the speeding car,
not towards me.
i hold more than your number in my hand;
don't misunderstand
when i bring you flowers and chocolates
and you forget my name.

thanks for the comment =]
glad you liked it
its strange how this stuff works because the mere issue of proximity has been proven to increase a person's tendency to get more attached to someone else =]

Yerp, I know how that goes and it gets fun for a while but after a while it starts to get verry agitating.

I always love the way you structure your poems. This one is especially well suited for its topic because it adds just the right touch of playfulness.
Everything in life is an observation and it's really embarrassing and often heart-wrenching to realize that you've hurt someone because you observed and interpreted something wrong. (I would know, I've done that a lot)

Awakening. I used to struggle in the same sense as you have. I like every line except the last. I felt almost awkward reading it when you're poem as a whole is so spoken-word, I felt too much as if I were reading it, and not hearing it.
Overall, I'd rate it as one of your better poems (I'm just now getting used to your styles), but you could've developed this one on effectiveness.
Great word choice, great imagery. <3d it.

I really like this, and I feel like I get what you mean. It's the worst feeling in the world to realize you've misunderstood the emotions of another and reacted in the wrong way, particularly when it's someone you care about. It also hurts when you realize they misunderstood you all along as well. I love this poem. I'll have to read more of your work.

thanks mate
this one is written with quite a different style, more focused on wordplay and ideas than imagery. i may explore down this track in the future but it is very hard since i am not as witty as i would like to be haha =]
