Look at me,
look back
go ahead
look at me again
"say that to my face"
circular something eyes
something red about the way your lips part
makes a little
sound
something anything really
to calm my nerves
slow me down
in the good way, of course,
hey
look at me seriously
this
is seriously serious
I'm not fucking around
not anymore
never again
it's not time to be the man
you've always been forced to expect
to dream about and desire
because i will be who i want to be
i am not some stereotype
i do not wear what you expect a man to wear
i am not a manly man with a camouflaged hat but a human being like you
in complete and utter love with you
but i just need
you to see and think and dream
outside the box
