Excuse me!

According to the date of writing my pieces, this one should go first. It dates back to February 15th, 2008. It is one of my favourites. You would notice the difference in style from my other older poems. I think it was written at the time when I started growing in poetry.

Excuse me!

Excuse me,
Allow me,
To take a moment of your time,
To say to you,
In words,
What subsides inside my mind,

Excuse me,
Let me,
Break this silence,
Melt this ice,
Ease this awkwardness,

Excuse me,
Let my poetry,
Speak for my heart,
Verbalize my feelings
And all emotions that- for always-
Were hidden deep within my bashful soul
But not anymore

Excuse me,
Cause I refuse to sit,
Wait,
And wish,
For you to make that first move,
And say that long awaited word,
Who said I should?

If it’s a rule,
I'm breaking it,
If it’s a law,
I'm against it,

I
Need
You…

No, wait..
Scratch that..

I
Want
You

I am whole,
Complete,
Independent,
And I,
Don’t need you,
Nor anyone else,
To make me feel,
Real
But,

I
Want
You

To walk with me,
Run with me,
Dance with me,

I
Want
You,

To fight with me,
Fall with me,
Rise with me,

I
Want
You

To dream with me,
Believe with me
Reach with me

I
Want
You

To Smile with me
Cry with me
Live with me

I
Want
You
To go through this long journey of life
With me
Side by side
Step by step
Through it all
Not because I cant make it alone,
But, because it will be
More beautiful
More enjoyable
More pleasant
With you

Because

I
LOVE
You,

I
Choose
You

Excuse me,

I
Want
You
