Do you know, that romance isn't what I want from you? Do you | Every Day Poems
Do you know, that romance isn't what I want from you?
Do you understand, that they pieced together some small things I take pleasure in, and they named them 'romance' against my will?
Do you realize how it turns my stomach around to see how those simple things, my simple things, have been manipulated and printed in our minds under the 'romance' label?
How do I let you know, that I detest romance, I hate how people think it's the only definition fitting for people like us?
Do you know, that if it were the last label left on earth, I'd still rip it apart, stomp on it with gritted teeth and mighty fury?
How do I let you know, that I just want to be soft, to you and to myself, and I just want to receive your softness?
How do I let you know, that I just want to be able to share my kindness with you, even as ragged and tattered as I often am?
How should I tell you, that I still want to be a shoulder to you, a haven you can come to when people incite your wrath and surface your frustration to the top?
What do I do? What about what I have already done?
Have I done enough yet, to let you know, to erase your doubts, to get your acknowledgment, to let you know,
To have you listen?
