He Loves Me He Loves Me Not

Just ask me and I'll tell ya, he loves me more than not
But excuse me while I phone him (I have this feeling he forgot)
He hasn't been by in a couple of months
But he loves me or at least I thought
'Cause it's been awhile since he told me that
He's human! He forgot!
Now I found this little daisy,
in the cement of a parking lot
And I pulled on its petals
refusing to settle
On the one saying he loves me not!

I love how playful this is. It has such a fun vibe to it, like there's hope and reality mixing and meshing together in a bit of a game. Your musicality is a bit wonky in a couple of places, but the overall product is brilliantly constructed. Well done!

I simply loved this poem and related to it a whole lot! It says such deep things with wit and humor and that's a very tough thing to do. The rhyming was perfect too! I'll enjoy reading more of your poetry!

[Mari' Emeraude]

Glad you enjoyed it, Divya!

This is very clever use of "grown up" rhyme. Nicely done.

I would have refused, too! Sometimes passion calls for a little play, and this was a good play on words, Mari!

Man I'm all over the place with my thoughts these days. Good thing I keep a pencil and pad on my nightstand ;p . I love writing columns or blogs but I've only put a few on here. I enjoy this place.

I've been here for a while. Oddly, there is an inspiration (we all get it from somewhere) that needles me to write. Lately the words have been flowing out of me. I'm glad you're here!!

I loved this poem. The words danced to perfect ending.
"But he loves me or at least I thought
'Cause it's been awhile since he told me that
He's human! He forgot!"
