“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley


Emotions, like hidden treasure
Are being found, buried deep
Confessions, close to my heart
Make their way out of me

You hold some kind of key
That opens up my darkest place
You hold me tight while I tell
Of the terrible memories

When I am done telling my story
You look into my eyes
I feel like you know more about me
Than I do myself, because I'm still exploring

An understanding that runs deep
Drifting through our blood
Holds us together in some unbreakable bond

Even before I knew your name
You knew how to make me laugh
A glittering in your eyes tells me
You'll never take that back

So where does our story begin?
And what will be our end?
I long for a happy ending
Though fairytales don't exists
I can dream all I want
Because when I'm with you
I believe that anything can happen

I normally don't title my work. If I can come up with something that I think fits, and is kind of allusive to the real meaning of the piece, then I will use it. Otherwise, most of my poetry is Untitled.

I like this poem, but I don't see how the title fits.
