Jerk MAG
January 2, 2009
I love your voice,
your soft brown hair.
I love your eyes
and love your stare.
I love your laugh,
your cocky smirk,
your stupid jokes.
You precious jerk,
you know I do.
I want my hands
all through your hair
each treasured strand.
I’m wrapped around
your finger still.
Am I yet yours?
Your love does kill
the things I hold
so close to me
and yet you’re the
best jerk I see.

I dont necessarily like rhyming poems, but this poem is very nice, straight to the point and talks about a person that acceps the other for who they and loves everything about them.

I don't really understand why this poem has gotten so much praise. It's simple and doesn't give any detail, as well as the fact that it rhymes. It's an overused concept (you're a jerk but I love you) and an elementary rhyme scheme. The lines "and yet you're the best jerk I see" i feel tie the poem together, but I still can't wrap my head around it. It's pretty, but I feel like it's something anybody could've done.

so you've never liked a guy/girl(don't know your sexual preference) thats kind of rude, but you can't help but like him?
