I spun around in circles in my dark lips
With my green teal eyes
Kissing me until flakes remained
I said I look like I just kissed a Zombie.

You left at long last
You're scared of the idea of not loving me
The way you think that I'm supposed to want you to love me
I've watched so much come and go.

I can argue my way out of a paper bag
Today I am tired, I'm weary
I've been trying to be still and strong.

You had a lot to think about you said
I've given you a lot to think about
You've never met anyone like me
I have no interest
In waiting or accelerating
Where I've currently worked really hard
To be.

It's getting late now
I thought we could have
Everything suddenly became so stuck
In past tense
Can I live with the idea that you don't want to
Or will love me
In the way you think you are supposed to?

I don't know what anything will bring
I bring an intense joy and emotion
To truly everything
Can't you see it
Can't you see me
Can't you see

I'm not interested in the concept of the one
Or the future you and I may or may not have
I'm so much more complex, full, and resilient
Can't you see
Can't you see me

I know you can.
