I Can't Give You The World

Dear Sam.

 

I aspire for assurance and linger for Love.

I misuse mistakes and inherit insecurities.

I keep trust temperamental and worries wistful.

 

Sometimes I’m not capable of being best.

And in ratio to my gentleman like conduct I feel as though I come off condescending.

 

I’m not happy about my heritage.

I sure in the hell am not proud of my pollutants.

 

But I ask you to view my soul sparingly.

And listen to my voice vicariously.

 

I have your best interest in mind.

I seek out to heal your beautiful heart.

I want to live all my days deciphering this poem I’ve been reciting daily ever since we met.

 

Until then, all I can assure you is that my Love runs deeper than any body of water.

All I can say is that I plan on holding you for many lifetimes to come.

All I can say is that I Love you, more than I could ever pronounce.

 

I can’t give you the world my dear, but I will show you it.
