Somber Girl

That is somber, maybe stoic,
smiles to see me,
pines to be near me,
cries on my shoulder,
lets me hold her till it's over,
enjoys going out,
and also staying in,
likes books, movies,
worries about sin,
thinks on her own,
but shares her secret,
she's not sure if she trusts me,
but she knows i will keep it,
holds my hand,
in front of the world,
looks beautiful too me,
to match her heart of gold.

Whether she love me or use me,
please, tease or just abuse me,
I pine for the girl who will amuse me,
capture my heart and test my mind,
is that too much too ask this time?

For a friend who doesn't understand my conflicting feelings.

Here's a new review....
I don't see what's conflicting in this.

The advice I'd give to you is that, if you haven't already, tell her all this face-to-face, because I'll bet you anything she'll appreciate and understand what you'd say then more than any poem. And I'd also bet she'd answer just as honestly. But, who knows? Maybe that's just me...
