It's so silly,
But the way I
want to feel love
It feels impossible
with a partner.
So, I do the impossible for myself
to feel love, I'd write a love letter
or a poem that reminds me of
memories, of learning
how to go about my fears,
with acceptance
and compassion,
facing any emotion combination
imaginable.
Read books that talk
about discoveries and difficulties
in going through tough times
Singing and dancing
in the rain
with my umbrella.
Going into the library
just to absorb all
the childhood memories
of getting
Sailor moon discs
to watch and reading
Archie comics with mom.
Rushing to church,
Knowing that I'm late when
they throw the holy water
in the beginning, and to
experience the whole
mass after that, just to pray and talk to
grandma.
Watching "Uptown Girl" only
to find more of what
I didn't notice
before when I was a kid
and starting to like
both Ray and Molly's personalities
At the end of the day, I feel
Fulfilled, knowing what my love
looks like.
