Confused Physical for Emotional

Talk to me about you while I
Listen.
Lay beside me
To
Confuse me about you and
Me.
Confirm my feelings
By
Portraying the Prince Charming who is
Allowing
Me to truly be
All
of who I am.
Insecurities
Disappearing, while appearing as confident in no need
To
Try charming you.
“Vanish,”
I say to loneliness.
“Please,”
I easily ask love.
“Listen
To me. I am full of joy. And if you continue
To
Continue, he and
Me
could obtain happiness together.”
By
the kitchen, you pull me close to your body,
Allowing
Happiness to travel our way.
All
is silent, but our breathing.
Insecurities
Of ours being hugged
To
Ensure that they can
Vanish.
If you could,
Please,
truly be the Prince C I see.

Listen to me by allowing all insecurities to vanish, please.

Here
I feel you hear my stillness.
I
Verify that I am real.
Am
I helping you
To
Understand that you are safe.
Love
is communication and honesty.
You
Kiss me, allowing me the freedom
And
Yet I still need to know that this firm
Hold
Is not temporary.
You
gradually leave behind your Kingdom.
Here
I start to view this professional thief.
I
steal away my unsure lips.
Am
I being fooled and abused, and did I give in
To
what disguises as happiness?
“Love,
that I easily trust, why must you
And
I struggle and
Hold
this grudge against one another.”
You
are speaking to me now questioning what is wrong.

Here I am to love and hold you.

Though,
I am scared, “Love is communication and honesty.”
I
want to know what we are.
Confused
You say we are friends.
Your
Mouth asks what I think we are.
Physical
me sits up straight and avoids eye contact with the
Attraction
next to me.
For
I am trusting love and
Emotional
thoughts to assist me in this familiar situation
Attraction
Next to me understands what I feel.

Listen to me by allowing all insecurities to vanish, please.
Here I am to love and hold you.
Though, I confused your physical attraction for emotional attraction.
