Whispered Confessions

 

I want to share intimacy

With a man that

Could potentially be for me

Yet he adamantly

Denies me

The pleasure of his company

 

Because She…

She hurt you

So now,

You’re blinded to the virtue

Of what could potentially be

The best thing that ever happened to

We

And I desperately

Want to be

Mrs. You

 

I want to be the one

Who writes the story of your life on my heart

And I never want us to be apart

I want to send you pointless and corny texts

I wanna pay bills with checks

That say Mr. & Mrs. Us and

I want to be the first one you’ve trusted in

How long?

 

How wrong and unfair

That what stands between us

Is stale air

And bad memories

Of a long ago who’s out of sight

But apparently not out of mind

Yet she’s prohibiting you from being mine

Making time seem endless

While I’m here in the trenches

Fighting for your love and attention

Affection

Which should be mine

Cause we were designed

To be

You and me.

 

I can’t compete with what she meant to you

And I’m incomplete because

My love for you

Is the axis on which my virtue

Truly revolves…

If I could dissolve this sentiment

And settle

For what we have now as our permanent

Forever

Just maybe I could weather this storm

And perform my friend role functionally

And in a perfunctory manner

But every time I think of you

I can’t help but see that

“Just Married” banner.

 

You’re my everything

My first and last thought

My reason for reading

My reason for writing

My reason for living

Now, you’re the reason I’m dying.

I’m really trying

to be your number only

And erase your lonely

Cause I can’t be your first

But I was born to be your last

And I can be your present and future

If you could just let go of the past

 

But I’m getting ahead of myself

And really,

The questions should be,

When can I hug you?

Will you please let me love you?

And most important,

Do you want to share intimacy

with me?

Beautifully written. Probably the most emotional that I've read from you so far. I love you interpretations and metaphors and "Mr. & Mrs. Us" was dope. Very poetic, yet still with a lot of swag as well.
Great write my love........

So many times the baggage of the past weighs down the hope of future love, for those who are jaded can't see what is good anymore because skepticism set it... very dramatic and melancholy write... Love it.

Lovely! You express your thoughts and hopes so well in here. The longing to love and be loved is so profound and almost touchable. Just beautiful!

My first wistful/knowing sigh of the day... that was a beautiful stanza... I really enjoyed the way you put that together. This was a lovely piece. Pitch-perfect, the lovely wistfulness just apparent throughout every word. It made me long for something/someone, but I don't even know what. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing with me! :)
