If he would let me
I’d marvel at your ebony hair
falling weightlessly
down your tired shoulders
Oh, how it kills me with jealousy
If he would let me
I’d run my fingers through them
finding comfort in its thickness
creating paths of discovery
If he would let me
I’d sit for hours marveling
at those hazel eyes, very dark hazel eyes
trying to dissect their histories
stories and even their romances
If he would let me
I’d embrace you
tightly, till my heart speaks with yours
in beats in sync
If he would let me
I’d hold your hand
and feel the rush of a 16 year old
high on butterflies and blushes
If he would let me
I’d kiss those wine red lips
and get drunk off of their toxicity
**** sobriety at this point
If he would let me
I’d lie on the hood of my car
under the stars, with you
listening to you foretelling
a vague future of fame and glory
If he would let me
I’d paint a portrait of ultimate beauty
with my fingertips
on your freckled skin
that’ll drive Aphrodite mad
If he would let me
I’ll stay high of off your laughter
enjoying the lightness of joy
all day, everyday
If he would let me
I’d go forth and give you it
but every time
I reach inside my rib cage
to grab it
it pulls back
and protrudes thorns
Oh dear heart
why have you sedated your being
I do miss me some adrenaline?
Why won’t you let me?
“I have heard many pumps you idiot
but none like mine
you think I like being prozac-ked
by your silly fear?
Oh dear you are a fool indeed”
