    you are a risk I'm willing to take
    though you crown me
    with your spikey thorns of something
    called romance
    until the bitter end

    and your paranoid friends

    love is a risk, as well as a cage
    a risk I'm willing to take
    a risk I'm willing, yearning to take
    for your wicked self
    and my unsatiable pleasure

    your lemonade skies is where I fly
    and your crystal clear mind
    after hours
    your butterfly drunkenness is what makes me hungry
    for a risk

    I'm willing to take

    A nice definition for romance, it's only a risk, a game of luck, you can't establish a logic to it or control it to make it work!

    *sigh*

    i remember feeling just what your poem describes; intense excitment for something you feel so anxious and nervous about; as well as sure and hopeful for. love it!

    hi this is great ,i felt this...after reading...

    we all have needs and taking risks
    is the feeling to be human, to test ourselves
    to try new things, to love ,to just live.
    but beware life has the down side also
    so the risks are choices.....to choose
    which risks... is the real risk....

    thank you for peom, keep writing
    it tests your beliefs........
    lovenpeace form saff.

    at last, something i can relate to! i love the bits about the lemonade skies, and the butterfly drunkenness...but my advice would be not to make the poem a song, leave it as it is...unspoilt and original. this is a poem for the sake of a poem :)

    Thank you, my wonderful audience.
    I am glad some people enjoy my words, which I use to build and to construct and to mold into a literary phenomenon called poetry.

    I can definitely relate to this poem right now in my life. And I think there is no risk that could be more worth taking, than that of love.
