I thought about all the ways
things could change when I finally
told you I loved you.
I thought about all the ways
things could change when you finally
met my children.
But, I never once thought about the ways
things could change if
they said they loved you.
I am a powerful woman
and I hide all this insecurity
under my strength.
I want someone who will
put me first sometimes.
I pour all of my heart into everyone else.
I lose myself often.
Just show me love
with your hands
and your time.
Make me feel like there is nothing
else in this world but me.
I want to hear all the ways
I am amazing.
I want to be showered
with affection.
But I give too much,
take too little,
and I don’t know how to stop.
Your heart fits in my heart
like it was meant to be there
the whole time.
that look in your eyes
my lips on yours
your breath warm on my skin
my tongue all over you
my moans
your moans
I can’t get enough of this feeling
I can see now
why those past relationships
didn’t work
you can love someone
but not be right for them
someone can love you
but not be right for you
