A Love Letter

my mind is alive

with thoughts and dreams and desires

but i hide them there,

because somewhere along the way

i decided i was too disgusting to want

or be wanted.

i was too disgusting

to aspire for more.

i’ll get my nails done one day,

i’ll get a tattoo one day,

i’ll get on tinder one day,

i’ll reach out one day

when i’m skinny.

if you just let me

maybe i could take you to the moon

and lay you among the stars

where you want to belong.

if you just believed me

maybe we could soar with the birds

and fly like you do in your dreams.

i see

all the things

you think are waiting

for you after 

your metamorphosis.

but if you let go and trust me

maybe you’ll be able to see

them too.

maybe you’ll realize all the world

was, in fact, made for you and me

to expand outwards and be.

so if you might just let me

we can go now sweet honey

we won’t wait any longer to live fully.

whatever you want

ill place at your feet.

i’d do anything for you lady

because you are me.
