Poetry For Everyday People

My Girl

I wish
I would have
found her sooner,

at times,
I feel
I arrived late,
she's done
seen too many ugly
things,
bad things,

life's misery
cornered her,
a few times,

I was far
tanning in hell,

she's seen
too much,
too early,
too easy,
scared,
has a candle out,

and I curse myself
for not getting there
sooner,
even though
right
on time,

I hold her
pure,
as the sun
will
always be,

this love,
is the kind,
that can
anything,

the kind
they write
about,

she's safe.
