Jason and I have known each other for a long time, and recently started
dating seriously. He broke up with Lisa in April (they dated for over a
year) and he can't seem to get totally over her. I want to give him
this poem to show him how much I really do love him. I don't want to
sound like the stereotypical woman, but I really want to marry this man.
I want to spend the rest of my life with him. I want to see him first
thing when I wake up, and last thing before I fall asleep. He is THE
SWEETEST man I have EVER met! We've known each other for a LONG TIME, I guess you could call us "High school sweethearts" When I was a freshman in high school, and he was a junior, we went to King's Dominion
(amusement park) together, and we did "naughty" things in the car, with
his whole family and friends there! A group of us went to our high
school's homecoming together that year. I was just looking at the
photo the other day. We all had our shoes off, and we were all holding
McDonald's toys. Jason was wearing a Red Hot Chilli Peppers T-shirt and Doc-Martens, while everybody else was dressed up! That's why I love him so much. He's different. He's very unique, and even wears black
eyeliner at times. My fondest memories are of being snuggled next to
him in the dark, making love on the carpet with his family upstairs.
Also, me shivering on my porch, but warm inside, as I clutch the
cordless phone, talking to Jason until the sun comes up. He's
beautiful. Short, jet black hair, and beautiful brown eyes. He's 5'
6", I'm 5' 0". We fit together like spoons. I suppose I could just
write him a letter, but I believe in the power of verse. I would
appreciate it SO MUCH if you could write this poem for me. My words
just can't tell Jason how much I want to marry him, have his children,
spend the rest of my life with him. Thank you.

Spoons

Hello, my dearest Jason, I love you so very much, I love the way you look, I love your tender touch. I want you to be with me, For the rest of my life, I want to have your children, I want to be your wife. I want you to be the cinnamon, In my morning coffee cup, I want you to be the first thing, I see when I wake up. I want to cuddle up to you, After we have made our love, I want to fall asleep in your arms, Carried on the wings of a dove. I know these are a lot of wants, And you're not quite over Lisa yet, But you are the finest person, That I have ever, ever met. And you are so different, So different from the rest, And yes I want it to be official, Yes honey, you're the best ! I love to snuggle up to you, Love it snuggled in the dark, Love making love on the carpet, Love making it in the park. And when I shiver on my porch, Talking to you on the phone, I'm feeling warm inside, I'm feeling not alone. We fit together like spoons, A finer match you'll never see, And I'll be the happiest woman, The day you marry me.
