I WANT
I want to love you like Friday night cuddles over Monday mornings
I want to love you like the smell of roses over its thorny stems
I want to love you like new memories I make every time you smile at me
I want to love you like the promise of rainbows after the rain
I want to love you like I love my name on your lips
I want to love you like Saturday morning cartoons over soggy cereal
I want my heart to beat with longing every time you’re far away
*
I want to yearn
I want to love
I want to love you
I want to love you like I loved the tears from the sky when I was little
I want to love you like the blue sky on a windy day
I want to love your flaws and make a home for your demons with my rib cage
I want to run from your beginning to your very end
And with every step
Every mile I conquer
Every strand of hair blowing in the wind
Every sweat breaking out on my skin
I want to be everything you didn’t know you were looking for
*
I want to burn
I want to burn with love
And watch you bask in the white smoke of my affection
I want to envy the heat of my flames as you writhe with pleasure from the cores of my being
I want to tap on your shoulder
Recapture the sounds of language from your lips
And build roots with your excitement
Sculptured with my hands and placed on the Everest for the world to see
*
I want…
I want to love you
But you won’t let me

FEAR
You’re like a tongue of flame on a candle I’m like my little niece Fascinated by your luminance Wanting to be a part of it Staring with big bright eyes
I See You
This is for those who hide their true identities behind masks of fake smiles I see you! For those who are not free to be who they want to be,
