Loving Someone
I want to write a poem about loving someone
Do you know how to love?
Or have you ever loved?
When you love someone
You need to let them be themselves
They can't fully love you
if they are not themselves with you
Can't be judgemental
Know that what they say isn't what they think
Know that it can be here today and gone the next
I am talking about their devotion to you
as we are not God and we can't be perfect all the time
Know that they try hard but it will come off differently
Do you always want them to be perfect?
It would be boring, right?
Don't ever want them to try something
They just want to please you
but don't like it
Instead let them try on their own
You would like the innovation
What am I talking about?
Have no idea haha
Just thought...
And when they are mad at you
watch out
They are not mad at you per se
but at what you do
So correct it
But above all let them air out
If not it would be held up
only to be let out at a later date
Do you want a perfect home?
That is a perfect death, my friend
When people can't say things to each other
They tend to go separate ways
Do you always know what to say?
Expect silence
and not try to fill the void
I know more about you when I am silent
and you are talking
You know more about me
when we are both silence
What am I doing?
You will see
I may attack you
Just kidding
Not
So don't talk too much, okay?
