Poem : Us

Us.

You make me feel so vulnerable.

You make me feel like I wanna cry all the time.

You make me wanna scream my heart out.

You make me confused.

You make me feel hurt.

You make my heart ache.

You have this power to make me feel so weak and then strong again.

You drive me crazy like nobody’s business.

You make me feel like I’m lost till I don’t know what else there is to do.

I hate you and I love you.

I wanna let you go and I wanna keep you.

I wanna get over with it and I wanna hold on to it.

I wanna scream and I wanna be patient.

What is this?

What are you doing to me?

Are you playing some kind of game that you don’t even know about?

Ask yourself about it and be straight up with me.

If you have anything to say to me, tell me. Don’t keep it to yourself.

If you think telling me would be a bad idea, try me.

You’ll never know what would happen. I might think the same way too.

If I don’t, it doesn’t matter.

I wish I could just stay inside of you forever.

I wanna know what you’re thinking, what you’re feeling.

I wanna feel you, touch you, explore you.

I love you.
