Back-to-front

Emma - Louise Braiden

I am of two minds,
I love you,
I need you
But
I don't want you
I don't want your eyes
I don't want your lips
I don't want your touch
I don't want your words
I
DON'T WANT YOU

I can not,
Am not worthy of
And
Am not ready for
Your love
Yet you
Persist
You write, you write
You WRITE
Never talk
Your words of love
Are empty
I do not doubt your feelings
But I doubt your motive
Am i second best
A comprimise?
I do not look
Like her
I do not act
Like her
I am not
Her

I long for another
A lover
In touch with
Me
Not numbers

I long to laugh
Share stupid jokes
Be free
Have intimacy
I DON'T want for you
To change
But we are not
Right
For each other
Yet you
Persist....
