I Wrote This For You: Just the Words by pleasefindthis
5.0
First re-read: November 2018
I know this collection might be considered cheesy or cliché. I know it's not ground-breaking.
But it worked for me - yet again. There are so many poems in this book that it's almost impossible not to find at the very least one that speaks to you. And I've definitely found more than one.
I'd say that this is one of my favourite poetry collections. Some poems just touched me and made me feel stuff.
After two years, I still think that this collection is phenomenal, emotional and impactful.
Another Favourite Poem:
And if you're alone, I hope you know that I'm alone too.
So I believe we will be friends.
P.S.
You are beautiful and loved by the universe that made you, with every atom and star moving in perfect alignment to make you, you.

Favourite Poem:
I won’t compose prose every morning you open your eyes next to me (I won’t compare you to a summer day).
I won’t kiss the tears from your cheeks whenever you cry.
I won’t remember every appointment.
I won’t keep the sheen on my armour.
I won’t know what to say sometimes.
I won’t get your order right.
I’ll be late.
I’ll fuck up.
But I’ll write something for you when you least expect it (in summer or winter).
But I’ll hold as tight as I can whenever I can.
But I’ll burst through the door as soon as I remember.
But I’ll polish it until it shines again.
But I’ll say something anyway.
But I’ll go back and make it right.
But I’ll get there.
But I’ll try.
