I wonder
will our children
have your brown skin
or my blue eyes?
On our first date, will you
open doors for me, or
ask if it’s impolite to kiss?
How will you propose?
Will you spell the question
in sand at our lake, or
utter it, grinning,
as our families watch on?
On our wedding day,
will tears sting your eyes
as you watch me, a white blur,
down the aisle?
Will you whisper your love
as we lie, entwined
in our shared bed?
When we’re wrinkled and old,
will you still take my hand
and say
you knew I was the one
since that day we danced?
All this, while I
watch you from the back row,
your head bent over your desk,
we’d not yet met,
and I wondered.

wow. i loved that. i know i for one, have done the same thing. to think about things that will probably never happen in such a way that makes me ache for it to be real. great job.
wow. this poem is good.... which im sure you know, because of all the poeple who commented, but.. its kinda hurts at the same time
all i have to say, is be careful. i had a boy base his entire future off me. trust me, neither of us were happy when i refused to come true.
but its a good portrayal of something we all do :) keep it up.

I think this is a really amazing poem because it happens to me every time; my mind wanders by itself and I can't control all those stupid things I think about... I loved it, really.

i like the idea, but i dont think it was amazingly written. i think that the tone was almost juvenile, which took away from the meaning of the poem, which definitly has potential
