you wanted to have my body
because you're attracted to me
my personality
my face
it arouses you
but you're holding yourself back
because you're protecting me
you're stopping yourself
you're pushing me away
because you know you can't have me
because you think you're not enough
because you have a lover

I know

I  k  n  o  w
you care,
I care for you.

I know

you haven't realized that
I care for you,
but it is more than that.

I didn't want to tell you
that

because I'm scared
that you'd ask how

and I have to tell you that I, too was like you.
