PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You wanted me to speak.

To tell you what’s in my heart, and on my mind.

Yet when my mouth is opened

You find me redundant and seemingly uninspired.

I can’t help that I replay and rehash.



I find myself in a constant state of disbelief.

You appear to be everything I’ve ever wanted.

Best friend, confident, lover, adventurer, father to be.

You could quite possibly be my everything.



You no longer scare me,

However the intensity has only grown more fervent.

How am I to deal, though I tell you to?

How am I supposed to accept what I doubt in my mind to be feasible?

That a man… and just a man, can hold me in such trance?

Can compel me, inspire me, move me, and give life to me?



How am I to accept these things that are seemingly real enough to everyone else

Though they elude me for I have never before set eyes upon such things?

Like a child’s flight of imagination, full of dragons and unicorns, pixies and fairy dust.



It’s what I want and most defiantly what I need

- To believe… to have faith… to have love.



So why can’t I accept this?

What I know now to be real

- This once presumed unattainable goal that is now set before me.



I lied to you… I am still scared.

There will always be that fear.

I can’t dispose of it… I can’t hide it away.

It is a packaged deal.



I can’t ignore the fact that with this great love comes great risk.

But I’m risking.



Ignoring better judgment and rational thinking

In exchange for free and boundless love!
