I'm not much good at poetry, but I thought I'd try. Slash, I guess, but
not graphic in the least. What do ya think?

What's Wrong?
Couldn't have done it without you
Couldn't have gone one more day
Without your comforting touch
And those soothing words you say
They didn't say it was wrong
Nor did they say it was right
You know we're not normal
But you brighten up my night
Your hands, like life, warm
And I can feel you next to me
I know this is what it's about
Why can't they just let us be?
What we have is real, I know
And I know you feel it as well
I know every curve of your face
I know everything you'll ever tell
If my blonde hair falls into your eyes
And our glasses lay broken and slain
I know it the end it'll be just fine
Because it's beginning, that cleansing rain
You and me are just growing up
Waiting as each of us survives
And everyday we'll continue working
And you know, we're living fine lives
We're free to go where we want
And there's lots of laughs and smiles
But there's also days like today
When it feels I've walked too many miles
Though I feel like I've lived enough
In truth, I'm still just a kid
I was lost in this wide old world
Until you found me like you did.
You're my strength, you know
As each day runs it s course
I can still see you brightly smiling
As I fight off all of my wars
I'd love to just live in happiness
Me and my curly haired man
And no one knows better than you
You are my promised land
I'll roam forever in the country
Of your lithe and warm self
And I'll always want more
It seems I can't put it on a shelf
You're with me every single day
Sweating right along with everyone
But we share a bond, you and I
And if you're here, there's no harm done
I struggled for so long you know,
With these strange feelings I had
I told myself I was wrong
I was going to Hell, I was so bad.
But how could I resist you
I was being tenderly caressed
The truth is more powerful, it seems
With your touch, I feel so blessed
How could something that feels so good
Ever lead to something so sinful?
Who said it was a sin anyway?
Why is it wrong to feel so blissful?
I was taught to be right and God-fearing
But they have never felt it like this
The way I feel it with you
I shudder underneath your kiss
Now that I've rambled forever
And you've listened, like always
Here's everything that's wrong
I'll love you for all my days.

So was it as bad as I feared? Perhaps I should stick to prose? What do you think?
