I am not the girl that you settle yourself for. I am the woman that you solicit ***** words to but never touch. The woman that you kiss but never wed. That you dance with but never share home. I am not "welcome mats" Or "family dinners" Nothing about me will ever settle you. I am full lips, And soft hands, Dangerous mind, And beautiful goodbyes" I am pleasant "good mornings" But only because I leave it there. I am not see you later. I am the after thought of beautiful, Something elegant but, not sensual enough to give into, smart but, not notable enough to settle for, I am heaven sent but not suited for marriage, And I am wet dreams, not yet solid enough to build on. I am too long, heart on sleeve But not steady enough to keep you there. I am kisses too far overdue, But not striking enough to linger after in your morning. I am sorry that I cannot be your sun And I love myself too much to be your moon. I am sorry, I have to leave you here, I am sorry, I took up so much space in the aftermath, The in between, Of you and the one girl who will settle you. -Indigo Morrison

...I will never settle you.
I am not the girl that you settle yourself for. I am the woman that you solicit ***** words to but never touch. The woman that you kiss but never wed. That you dance with but never share home.

I am full lips, And soft hands, Dangerous mind, And beautiful goodbyes" I am pleasant "good mornings" But only because I leave it there. I am not see you later.

I am too long, heart on sleeve But not steady enough to keep you there. I am kisses too far overdue, But not striking enough to linger after in your morning. I am sorry that I cannot be your sun And I love myself too much to be your moon. I am sorry, I have to leave you here, I am sorry, I took up so much space in the aftermath, The in between, Of you and the one girl who will settle you. -Indigo Morrison
... I guess this is in reference to the girl who is always 12am thoughts but, never mid summer afternoon's.
