Perhaps

Perhaps if I did not find myself so repulsive,
I could let you love me as you wish you could.

Perhaps if you didn't find my uses so appealing,
I could love myself as I was always told I should.
Being used isn't okay.
Long roads
Dusty strewn with evergreen
dirt as far as the eye can see
old beat up truck
leaking oil
skittering on its side
next time
just say goodbye
You only need your heart broken once
To be able to create a lifetime of poetry
