Savannah The Second


Before you came along
I doomed myself to insanity
Isolating myself to
my ever increasing depravity.

Damned by society
to become a disgruntled hermit
I then test their boundaries
trying to see what they permit.

In the end I only had
a small group of friends
we see society for what it is
and try to make of it, our ends.

When I ran into you
my heart leaped for hope
that perhaps with someone I may share
my views, hates, and how to cope.

I swiftly made my move
trying to make with haste
but despite my alacrity
at my words I found myself misplaced.

then one fateful call
upon the telephone
I admitted feelings for you
perhaps I wouldn't be alone.

you then returned to me
equal feelings reflected
you then gave to me feelings
of the joy of being accepted.

I then stand here now
writing this poem, feeling askew
because in my mind
I believe I don't deserve you.

When life kicks me in the teeth
and my body feels wretchedly decomposed
all I do is think of you
and I feel might unopposed!

I then grow in strength and
look optimistically into the day
because as long as I can see you again
Life can smash me about as it may.

All of this becomes irrelevant
when you come back into my arms
My brain becomes brimming with joy
removing me from life's harms.

I just hope reading this
thoughts of me do the same
you are awesome, let none tell you otherwise
Kitten, You are one hell of a dame.

XOXO
Mike
