This Poem is About Our Love
Folder:
In Dedication This poem was supposed to be about our love.
About how robins sing our names in their songs because for some fucked reason some women and men find that idea to be romantic and not afraid that birds are developing some kind of freak intelligence and this is starting out like a weird horror film.
Or maybe bring in some overused metaphor about how I will fight to the death with some [insert very frightening animal that has been known to kill men here] just to prove my love for you.
Which I would not. You are dating a girl afraid of spiders, jeez, do not expect me to fight something that would be fucking peaceful if I hadn't disturbed it to prove some weird display of macho-ness over this animal.
Or maybe tell some anecdote about how cutesy we are and why we are meant to be.
Which means I should probably NOT tell of the time you told me I was funny looking or the time I asked you to Sadie Hawkins and you said no. Over snapchat.
Oh! Some girls find it romantic when people write poems about going across the ocean for them. When really it isn't that hard anymore. Mostly just expensive. And I'm broke..... Sooooo..... That is a no from me.
This poem was supposed to be about or love, so let me try again.
I might not fight that scary animal we inserted into the blank above but I fought with a very angry and confused Step-Father when I came out and said I was dating another woman.
I might not cross that ocean for you but my love transcends states and my lips touch yours although you are 1,290 miles away, 21hours and some odd minutes if the need to fucking pee, eat, and stop and get gas where not an issue.
I would maybe, sorta, kinda, kill a spider if I am feeling brave for you.
I am willing to put up with your bullshit and your bad days and your anger and sadness and any baggage you want to pile on yourself. Because, I have all that too. And when you have your good days the rest doesn't matter.
I am ready to take the punches and the words that come along with telling this poem to strangers who I am not sure how well they will take this messege.
Because some days I am not sure if I love or hate the world enough to love you.
But I do.
And this poem is about our love.
Im speechless. And I would
Im speechless. And I would have said yes if like...I was there. I just thought it was weird to go to a dance that I couldn't PHYSICALLY be at. And besides. The point of that dance is for GIRLS to ask BOYS... Not other girls. No matter how in love they are.and I thought that time I called you funny looking was fucking hilarious. But I love you. Ands killing a spider is enough to prove your love to me.
