Elliot Poem by Marissa Hollis

The one
All of my poem's meanings
go back to.
My love.
My savior.

He has gone through so much in
his life
and
he has now been given a new task.
me.

He has brought me up and down,
Made me happy and sad,
Made me feel good and bad,
but he doesn't know
how much he can help me.

When we fight,
It's as if my whole
world
is crashing down
and
he is slipping from
my grasp.
But yet,
he is still here.

Although...
not completely.

How different everything is now.
The world is changing,
and so are we.

His eyes
(my favorite of his traits)
used to sparkle when they caught
a glimpse of me.
but now,
its as if
all the happiness
has been
drained
from them,
leaving no hope
to look upon.

But i'm trying
to make things right
with the love of my life.
It's what I want more than
anything.

He is so wonderful,
that boy.
A pleasure to be around.
I would hate for anything
tragic to happen.
So i'm trying
and that's all that matters.

It's worth it.
I swear.
One hundred percent.
Being around him
during this part
of my life
is going to make
life so much better
I can't wait for the
new me
to arrive.

It's something you just know.
When a guy so amazing
comes waltzing into your
life.
It's for a reason.

Elliot,
I love you.
