27 years travelling on the byway - This time 'round I'll only have it my way Don't bother pussyfooting, I won't pick up the phone Don't want you 'round for coffee if then I dine alone
I never should've looked your way thinking I was blind Now I just can't erase your picture from my mind Trying to carve you away my knife goes blunt I kick you out the backdoor, you walk back in the front
When you can have all of me, I'd die to break your fall Half of you's not good enough, it's nothing or all When you can have all of me, I'd always place you above It'd kill me to just like you when I really want to love.

Chaptain,
Its either NOTHING OR ALL. THIS IS WHAT IT SHOULD BE ALWAYS. NO IN BETWEEN. NO GRAY SHADOW UPON WHICH DOUBT EVOLVE. ITS EITHER YOU LOVE ME OR YOU DON'T. VERY BLUNT YET IT RIPS THE TRUTH OUT OF ANYBODY WHO DOES OTHERWISE.
When you can have all of me, I'd die to break your fall Half of you's not good enough, it's nothing or all When you can have all of me, I'd always place you above It'd kill me to just like you when I really want to lov

a beautifully well written poem , it shows so well ,the pain one can suffer when there are stronger feelings from one and not the other ! when lucky enough to find someone so very special, it is indeed so very important to give it your all --half measures just won't cut it Wonderful poem --well done --Serenity
