A Poem For Jasmine

by Latoya R.
(Chicago)

Where do I start
To show you that I love you
with all of my heart
Nothing in this world is worth risking what you given
Lets start putting God first
let this be a new beginning
I cherish and appreciate the love you gave
It's time for me grow up and start to behave
We both have stubborn ways
but our hearts beat as one
And with every breathe I take you also take one
I sit here with tears because
I've destroyed a perfect bond
But I'll sacrifice and fight until the battle is won
My dear sweet Jasmine my heart and soul belongs to you
And I will go thru hell and back
to make it all better with you
