Love Poem: He Writes

He Writes

A lonely boy sits beneath a willow tree
He stares at the glistening stars above him
Pen in hand 
And feelings on paper
He thinks about a specific girl

The laughs and the smiles
They are unforgettable
“She makes me happy”
He writes

The tears and the heartache 
They come too easily
“I will protect her with my life”
He writes

The mistakes and bad decisions
They are only moments away
“I want only the best for her”
He writes

The lonely nights and terrible days
They appear to be constant
“I will be there for her whenever, wherever, and always”
He writes

He writes, he writes, he writes
He writes until his pages are filled with black ink
Until his pen cannot take another stroke
Until his paper has run out

He writes, he writes, he writes
He writes until he is out of words
Until love isn’t meaningful enough
Until he himself is drained of emotion

He writes, he writes, he writes
He writes because she is his world
She is his life
She is his everything
