Since I had so much fun re-writing the last poem, I looked through my book and found yet another poem from 2017 that I thought would sound nice with a bit of rhyme. Don’t get me wrong I like the poem as it is, but I just felt like changing it up a bit would be fun. Here it goes.
Respect
-You are the one
The one for me
The only one
I am sure of it
-In fact
I have never been more sure
I have been spontaneous and
Indecisive at points
maybe even a bit
irrational you call it
-I call it excited
Excited about life
Excited about love!
No love is not irrational
-Love is real and
Love is deep
Deeper than some can comprehend
No not irrational
but strong! consistent
And most important
Full of Respect!

Respect
-You are the one
The one for me
The only one that could be
I am sure of it
-In fact, I have never been more sure
I have been spontaneous and indecisive
At points maybe even a bit irrational in crisis
At least that is what you call it
-I call it excited
Excited about life
Excited about love in strife!
No – Love is not irrational
-Love is real
And love is deep
Deeper than some comprehend it could seep
No – not irrational but strong – consistent
And most important full of Respect!
