For my xxBABYDOLL_QUINNxx
"That I'm too possessive and"
They told me
We weren't meant to be together
That I'm too possessive and
You'd swallow me whole
They told me
That I could never be with you
That I'm too linear
That you're four times anything I could ever be
And I know
For I've seen the way you reach out so wide
In hopes of capturing enough of this world inside
How your wings beckon so many near
So you can cradle them and whisper in their ear
How you're out of my league
Because I'm just a speck in this world
You manage to hold yourself together
And I often get unfurled
Mark my word
We're not so different
You and I
Your sleek curves have embraced
The words of Shakespeare a thousand times
All I ask is that somewhere between your lines
There is room for me
I will fit into whatever spaces you let me
Loving you means a family of five
For you, I'd leave my favorite contraction behind
I used to start and end relationships
But for you, I'll take all the time
I want to wake up in the morning
And feel you wrapped around me
To gaze up and have your smile lines
Be all that I see.
I'll be there for you when you can't keep everything together
To wipe your tears
And rearrange your letters
I swear I could make it better
If there was you and I
