It’s like a morning in-a-half away from being day
It’s like a tear minus a drop from crying the night away
It’s like sleeping ‘till dawn, leaving all the dreams behind
There is no better way to extract these similes
And replacing them with quiet storms and midnight sightings on the mid life crisis line

I want to listen without hearing you
I want to be expressive about me, and I and most importantly us
Without having to think
I want to write down how I feel
Without feeling
I want you to need me like people need Jesus
Like the plane needs the sky to fly
Like poets need pens to write
Like rappers need mics
Like eyes need vision
And body needs language
And yours is speaking loud and clear to me

See, what I am trying to say is
The days spent with you are amazing
And I want to lie in bed with you
Speaking of forbidden fantasies
Singing songs of different cravings sexually
Reading poems of how you want me mentally
And I, just can’t help myself to kiss you
Feels kind of out of place but it isn’t
Cause I know that you wanted to kiss me too
But instead you pull me closer to you
And you read me a poem entitled, “You”
“You are you and without you how could one conquer the impossibilities that life offers us. You are my golden star amongst silver moons. You are the reason I breathe this thing called love and exhale another thing called intimacy, see without you my knees weaken and my mind can’t think’eth because you are you”

As this wheel continues to turn my pen will continue to burn
See, all that is visible isn’t all that is believable
And all good-byes aren’t see you soon
And all silver moons don’t shine
But you, yes you
Are my poem
And u I cherish inevitably
I need to hold you like a baby needs his mother
And i want you to be the first to hate me and love me at the same time
I want to be the first poem that stays on your mind
So say that you will take on these duties
And I will promise to heal every wound of desire
I will hold you like my own
Cause all I want to do is love you
But nothing is easy
And if you feel like I am coming on too strong
I apologize
But must I remind you that there is no such thing as coming on too strong
Just being strong and you continue to come to me
See, my mind has said every simile
And expressed every hopeful memory
All that remains is your commitment

Cause …
It’s like a morning in-a-half away from being day
It’s like a tear minus a drop from crying the night away
It’s like sleeping ‘till dawn, leaving all the dreams behind
And I want to hear without listening
I want to be expressive without having to think
I want to feel without feeling
I want you to need me like people need Jesus
Like the plane needs the sky to fly
Like poets need pens to write
Like rappers need mics
Like eyes need vision
And body needs language
There he cuts me off and says,

“See, what I am trying to say is
The days spent with you are amazing
And I want to lie in bed with you
Speaking of forbidden fantasies
Singing songs of different cravings sexually
Reading poems of how you want me mentally”

And he, just can’t help himself to kiss me
Feels kind of out of place but it isn’t
Cause he knows that I want to kiss him too
But instead, I pull him closer to me
And I read him a poem entitled, “You”
“You are you and without you how could one conquer the impossibilities that life offers us. You are my golden star amongst silver moons. You are the reason I breathe this thing called love and exhale another thing called intimacy, see without you my knees weaken and my mind can’t think’eth because you are my LIKE or AS…you are my simile”
