A poem; "What I Mean"
Updated: Jun 12, 2020
What I mean when I say
"I hate you" is that
actually, I love you.
What I mean is
you've found a way to
get past my walls
& that in & of itself
is a sign from
Spirit.
What I mean is,
how can I feel like this?
Because
you feel like safe &
safe means
run or
safe means grab your
favorite spoon & stir
that shit up.
What I mean is
I need you
What I mean is
I'll probably fuck this up.
II.
What I mean when I say
"I need you" is that
actually I'm thirsty-
mouth watering for you,
among other things.
What I mean is that I'm
hungry
for you.
What I mean is come
now
& make every
beautiful part of me yours,
Because
the magnets under my skin
are pulling for you.
Do yours pull for me?
What I mean is
I can't wait any longer-
What I mean is
I need your commitment,
and your trust,
and your future.
What I mean is make
yourself free to me &
let's make memories.
What I mean is
I'm ready.
