i want to be the centre of attention
in your eyes
i want you to look at me in my vulnerable moments and think
"gosh she's beautiful"

i want you to love me for who i am
even when I have messy hair
scrunched up in a bun on the top of my head
or when i have a bare face
my pale complexion
with millions of imperfections.

i want you to love my brain
the way i think
the way i talk
the way i  a n a l y s e  things

I want you to trace your finger across the
small ridge on my nose
Stare at the    o u t l i n e    of my rouge lips
and gaze into my eyes like you gaze at the stars
when you feel alone.
oh so                                                          alone­
i want you to study every pixel of me
every inch of skin
and think-
*"wow, i want to be with her forever"

They say roses are red
and violets are blue
But what if I'm colour blind?

What if roses are blue
and violets are red

What if the grass is grey and the sun is black?

What If your love is fake?
You're a mistake.
But wait
Don't hesitate

To take your blue roses
and your red violets
with you

And give them to the next girl in line at the flower shop

Let's hope she's not colour blind too
