Lover

I want to write

Love songs and

Love letters to someone

Who doesn’t

Actually know me or

Love me yet

I want to write poems

And letters to them

As if I

Don’t have someone

Waiting for me

I want to make them

Fall in love

With the letters on the page

As if I am a

Prophet and

What they read about me

Is holy and I am

A fountain of truth

I am love, I am truth

When I weep and suffer

My waters flow, and

Love distills within me

I am a lover,

That is what I am here to do

Why do I have to do all of these

Art tricks in order for you all

To see me at full value
