Ink & Love Poem by Dakota Ellerton

There's a million things about you,
that I could never face.
The reasons why you'd make me cry,
and keep me in my place.

Unlike a good foundation,
or a tree rooted in the ground,
I could not stay in once place long -
unless in that place you're found.

Now that we have got Jaden,
times hardly seem as lonely.
But there's no substitute for the nights,
when I just need you to hold me.

Your heart is just as bitter,
as my fool speaking tongue.
But regardless of your procrastination,
I'd still wish you were the one.

I will never forget the pain,
or the ache you've grown in my heart.
But without a doubt I need your love,
or I may just fall apart.

And everytime I think of you,
I think of Jaden too -
And when the moment hits me right,
I'll remember why I love you.
