This is my first posting to alt.romance.  Here is a poem that I also posted
to rec.arts.poems, but I thought it might be liked by romance readers also.

       I'd Like
I'd like to write you a poem 
    that would tell you how
    I feel about you
But the words wouldn't rhyme
    and it wouldn't touch you
    the way I'd want it to
I'd like to make you understand
    with the sweep of a pen
    what real need is
I'd like to sing you a song
    that would make you cry 
    inside yourself
But you wouldn't listen       
    because the wall you've built
    around yourself is so high
    it's almost impossible to climb
I'd like to try

Hope you liked it.
