NaPoWriMo #27 - Let Someone Else Take the Lead

For my dearly beloved,

Everything you could ask for and more

But not the thing you really want,

Really need...

Unnecessary things only

And things you don't want

Right when you don't need them...

You didn't actually expect more, did you?

Notes: February is my birth month. I chose it because it has so many things associated with it, and I didn't feel like writing an acrostic poem that was actually about myself.

I haven't written an acrostic poem since elementary school. They're not one of my favorites, but they're more interesting than I remember them being (and they accomplish the task of easing us into the final stretch quite nicely.... but let's not think about that. It's too sad).
