At Least for Me

At Least for Me

A Poem by Isabel Draper

At Least for Me

 

A bitter sense of relief every time I see your face

 

Hear your voice, let's escape from the noise,

you like my poise, we laugh like little boys, I'll let you destroy

 

Me, I hate being so pathetically dependent

 

I need you to hold me, every time that you told me, you stole me, now I'm cold

 

Every time you go, don't you know, I'll never stoop so low, let you go, if I told you so

If I told you so

What would happen if I told you so?

 

I've always found it hard

 

This way of living, but I'm 100% driven, I need you to listen, eyes glazed over they glisten, it's very fitting, my world is splitting, angry words you're spitting, the passion you're giving

 

Maybe these feelings will

 

Go away, like a summer haze, or half hearted craze, but it's been more than days, if I said I need you to stay, would you obey, because whenever I pray

 

You laugh and say its pointless, I'm doing it

 

In vain, but there's too much pain, drive each other insane, anything else is too mundane, it's plain, this isn't just a game, I don't complain, less like cocaine

 

And more like oxygen since

 

I need you, breathe you, never leave you, love you, hate you, laugh with you, cry over you, never get over you, complete you, become you

 

In return you will

 

Starve me, crave me, save me, desire me, protect me, shut down because of me, affirm me, legitimize me, fight me, lie to me, distrust me, but put your full self into me

 

This is it.

 

This is the top, the bottom.

 

The epitome of love and burning need, at least for me.

 

It doesn't get better than this.
