#idolizing poems on Hello Poetry

Unknown Oct 2018

I often idealize others, especially when I first meet them, and feel comfortable in sharing the most intimate details
with them. But I often feel that these same people don’t care enough and aren’t there enough for me.

Resplendent Image

on
seeing
his
resplendent
image
in
the
reflective
glass
that
did
start
a
lifelong
romance
every
minute
of
every
day
he'd
take
an
idolizing
look
at
himself
in
the
mirror's
venerating
window
he's
not
vain
not
half
he's
right
into
self-love
kissing
himself
until
the
glass
fogs
up
who's
that
lovely
fellow
with
the
conceited
appearance
as
he
throws
his
adoring
arms
rapturously
around
himself

don't tell me idolization isn't dangerous
you see,
i haven't worn red lipstick since i found out you didn't like it
and now i don't know if i like it or not
i can't tell if my favorite show is my favorite show because you,
sir,
liked it first.
parts of me are parts of you and i wonder who i'd be if i took you out
but i don't
remember
how to do it
