Question

By: Daniel William Whiting-Mahoney

It hurts me to see
how much you feel

what he did was wrong and now
i live in the shadow

he did wrong and i understand
but i am a completely different man

i saw how you felt when you looked in the mirror
and every time i told you that you need no make-up
i saw an astonished tear

i see the way you try to shed the pounds
but i see sexy curves and i love it all around

you have fears and you have tears
heart broken
one too many times

i hurt you once
it felt like a crime

i can't believe you came back
after what i did
definitely after what happened with him

you are a strong-hearted girl
and brave, too

now i have one thing to say to you
it is more than weird and i fill with fear

Marissa, my sweet darling dear, i love you
and i hope to for my years

after trials in my down times
when you stand strong
every time we kiss we sing a silent song
but it's a united one

it seems so hard to comprehend
after my past, my illness, you're here to defend

i sat down and thought the other day
what life would be if i let myself free

and i laughed a unique laugh
because i could only see you running next to me

i don't know how far to take this poem
before i hope you get the point

my one question remains unasked
it is saved for a different date

Marissa, i love you
I can see that one day you will marry me

I love you.
love, DANIEL<3 ;)k>
