Despite

Wispy twists of cigarette smoke engulf you,

A recent customary end-of-day tiedown,

 

This is you,

 

With me,

 

And all of the I love you's in my eyes

and the I need you's that drip from my lips

 

Are enough

 

Enough, just enough

 

To make you look my way--

 

And I know,

despite yourself,

You can see me through your cloud of uncertainty~

 

~I'll be okay as long as you see me.

    Nice to see your words ~

    This is a great poem; I like the shortness of it as it packs a strong sense of emotions and imagery for the reader to twist around in their minds

    Hey, I missed reading your work but I suppose with one on the way, it has been hard to check in. Anyway, on to the poem.
    It's a very brief poem that gets right to the point. "everyone needs somebody to love and somebody to love them."
