Weak

What if I told you,
That I could never think of me
being at least halve as beautiful
as all the things I have the
potential to write-

What if I told you,
that last night
I was gorging myself with
pride-

and when I finished
I was so full,
I picked up the phone
marked your number
took a deep breath,
and felt ready to
tell you that,

I was done with all we were...

but honey,
you said..hello
and in the spur of the moment
turned my stomach
into the home of fluttering
butterflies

although I swore,

I swore not to fall,
not to tremble,not to
doubt my reasons,
but by that time
words of love had already
escaped my mouth

you whispered;
'me too'

and I couldn't help but smile,
feeling hungry all over again.
