Love Poem from a Tuba Player MAG

By Anonymous

      Many times I have wished

That I sit next to you

And not

Behind you.

But behind you is good enough for

Me,

I, who write stupid little love poems,

But will never have the

Courage

To deliver even

One.

And sometimes,

In my most desperate moments,

My most hopeful hours,

I have wished

That I was your

Trumpet.

So that every reluctant moment

You spend in

Band

You’d be

Kissing

Me.

over half the guys I have dated were in band and i just think this poem is hilarious and i've had the same feelings, writing the poems but never really saying anything

just really good job, it's accurate and cute!
