what if for a second,
you can love me back.
look at my eyes
the way i adore yours.
rub your supple lips
to mine 'till i break apart.
squeeze my hand
and never let go.
write poetry about us,
like i'm the only thing in the world.
wake up next to me,
after those soothing lullabies.
feel your body,
close to mine.

what if.
what if.
what if.

you can love me back.

then i wouldn't have to write you a poem.
