not my soul.

oh but darling,
he loves everything about your soul.
he loves the way your laugh sounds with a joke he makes.
he loves the way you never give up on someone you love...
never giving up for something you oh so terribly wish to grasp.
he loves the way you make his soul feel...
the feeling of thousands of butterflies inside his chest.
he's in love with everything inside your soul.
everything your insecure about,
he loves.
but darling,
don't lie to yourself...
telling your soul he loves your body too.
loving your body isn't avoiding any touch within.
loving your body doesn't consist of barely grasping or touching it.
avoiding any kiss or touch,
is what he does.
my darling,
I'm sorry,
he may love your soul...
but he fails to love your body.
and that my poor girl,
isn't love.
only loving one half of you,
isn't love.

my lover poetsWhere stories live. Discover now
