Just a Conversation

Folder: 
2016

“You complete me,”

a majestic set of words

that shouldn’t converge

around me

 

“You are my universe,”

a slippery hurricane

I wish I’d

never heard

 

And it’s just

a conversation

but it carries a weight

I don’t want to hold

 

It’s just words,

but I’d rather leave

your arms around me

than make a promise I can’t keep

 

“Love,”

a simple four letters but

one of the heaviest

things on the planet

 

And it’s just

a conversation

but it carries a weight

I don’t want to hold
