what's wrong with me? is it my sun kissed skin that you don't want to associate your soft pale touch with? is it my hearty laugh that you're scared will turn heads? booming inside me like my ancestors screamed. is it my past that haunts you, is the ghost creeping besides you? do you see my dark side, and reject me too? is it my crooked smile, that makes you think im still a child? i could never have the time or money to fixed my abnormal smile. is it cause im three times your size? you want someone who cares if they live or die? someone who isn't in survival mode? someone who wants to be 90 years old? did you hear how disgusting i am? how i pick my nose in the shower? how i dont shave cause of feminist power? how i say **** too many times? or that i move every couple of years? am i too inconsistent cause i change the color of my hair? is it because i dont love myself, that you cant love me? am i a project that you dont want to complete? am i a puzzle that you dont want to piece together? is that it? is there more? am i too hot tongued? too foreign? too much? why am i never enough? ill compare me to the girl you picked, always wondering, why am I never it?

we almost loved each other
I wish I was the light to your firework, I wish I was the first snow in your winter, I wish I was your paid time off, I wish I was the warmth in your sweater. I wish I was the A on your paper, I wish I was your cats making bread, I wish I was your first sip of coffee, I wish I could see your face again.

I fantasize about touching my thighs to your lips when you whisper sing in my ear- softly letting your hand dance on my back while we lay in your bed listening to 2009 rock.

I feel more alive when I'm with you- speak to me through your sweet tongue- of memories past where we thought of making love.

please love me forever...
fly me across the world so i can lay in your arms- to find out you're in love with someone else, hear my heart shatter in a glass of cold chardonnay, see it harden while it heals my pain, and feel our former flame burning away in the maple leaves.
