Read Me Like a Love Letter

Perhaps... My problem is that I expect you to See me as clearly As I feel you- My tongue never Knows how to Speak to you, So I try to tell you Everything I am With my eyes... You tend to make Me feel like an Open book, So maybe I'm just Dissappointed You don't know How to read me... If it will help you See me better, I'll cover my skin With poetry, so That you can read My arms like A love letter- So that my body Becomes something That you can read, As if it means Something- And so that then, When you read My poetry from Paper, You will read it Like my skin- As if it means Something... If you want, I can teach you The language Of my soul, Because I want To mean something To you... And I want to learn The language of Your soul.
