It's you

Who bothers to write

while tired and drained

who can each day

sensitively reflect and retain

who oozes pure happiness

over simple little gains

who cries like a child

when love gets a little strained

who composes poems

walking in the rain

who sends love verses

while riding in the train

who drowns himself in love

like addict on cocaine

who puts all his stake

fighting a losing game

who cherishes me

like slow sips of champagne

who licks my wounds

and hides his own bloodstains

who richly emotes artists

who have gone insane

who has me falling in love

all over again

    ^^ I think "sensitively" Kinda takes your rhythm away... so I would take that out.

    ^^second stanza "while riding in the train" I would say... while riding in trains. Flows better also.

    ^^ Maybe it's a typo but "like addict on cocaine" I would say "Like AN addict on cocaine"

    I love it so much :-) One of my favorites
