PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am ready for you, boy.

Never been a stupid broad, I know

exactly how you need me and

I know how to give it up.

Someone to love

you,

someone to validate

you,

someone to talk

to,

someone who can prove you are good and hold

your hand

when you are feeling down.



I've been with boys before and

they make me sad tonight

I am so sad but not enough to cry

I haven't done that in weeks.

Because I need you too, the night

to exist in, lines to color and

live in, a story to write and a urge to

give into.



I am a woman, and can't stand your double standards.

Tired of men not giving us a chance to be more than romance

flowers tears and undying loyalty,

fuck that,

I am nothing if not your equal.



I wanted to be softness

silk and small shoes but

I just cant ignore how

rough the world is and

how you get more.

I am just saying I wish I didn't expect the worst

and I wish it wasn't coming,

because it is, its true,

and I am ready

for you

boy.
