" lurvable"

Mess with this heart,

you always do,

Oblivious to love

that’s true.

Swagger in,

head askew,

Slurring, “I lurv you,

I lurv you.”

Why burden this heart

with sober disdain,

Hardly meeting my gaze,

causing pain.

Tongue-tied,

no touch, no smile,

Leaving me longing

all the while.

Wake up,

see beyond the cans-and-sway,

There’s so much more to us,

every day.

Beneath

your aloof facade,

I see,

The potential for

love-that’s-meant-to-be.

Cast off

the chains of inebriation,

Embrace

the depth of real sensation.

For in the wake of your sober eyes,

A love unspoken,

ready to rise.
