Love Poem: A Perfect World

A Perfect World

In a perfect world, he would be mine
Because he is more than just fine
He is all I could ever want
And none of the things I don’t

In a perfect world, our love would be real
Because nothing compares to how I feel
A yearning that’s way too strong
Stirrings that could never be put to song

But it’s not a perfect world is it?
And it’s only me the love bug bit.
So now I’m left with my pain
Reality proves there’s nothing to gain

Sorrow slowly fills my heart
As my fantasy quickly falls apart
My tears steadily soak my pillow
As I lay here like a weeping willow

So I will just drown in my sorrow
And hope for a better tomorrow
