Too Sweet
When I met you
You seemed insecure
Even though you said
You'd been around the block
And when you told me
How great I was
I thought you were a nuesence
Like too much cream in my coffee
But you caught my attention
And soon you were
On my list of top 10 friends
You shared your favorite things
With me
And when you told me
Your deep dark secret
You gambled that
I would not like you if I knew
But I only loved you more
Then you helped me clean up
After my last "bad party"
I never asked
Now I find myself thinking
What would it be like
To touch your face
And hear you breath close to my ear....
