Watered down confidence
Triple shot of emotions
Love pours out
just as quickly as it is
washed down ....draft
Uncertain my true place in life
amidst a big menu
Somedays I’m wanted
other days I’m hated
Some people take me straight
others want just a part of me
I seem to adapt like it’s easy
but deep down inside
I want them to want me
for who I am, the good, bad and
UGLY
This isn’t a pitcher perfect
comparison but I hope you can see the parallels
My glass isn’t always half full
after many years of past pain
Some raise me high and decide
to celebrate making a cheers
Some rely on me to just be their medicine to dilute their fears
I can be average and truly mediocre however not opposed to dressing up , white linen cloths cover the tables, big fancy light fixtures and romantic music .... special occasion
However it seems most want me in the darker form, true hole in the wall, dim lighted , sticky bar amidst others that can make them feel better rather than change
Maybe one day I’ll be beside her and she will see my true value and TOGETHER we will enjoy each others company
TOGETHER, we will both respect one another
TOGETHER, we will not treat each-other like an item and for once we will be doing the ordering TOGETHER, of a life we both desire, TOGETHER
My future love
