Tepid

Friendship between two people of the opposite sex, I just don't get it. I don't get why u enjoy talking to me more than your boyfriend. I don't get why you think cheating only begins in kissing or having sex with a non-boyfriend friend, so is everything else just normal: the way you look at me!; the way you laugh to my boring jokes!; the way you call me all the time, with nothing to say for that matter; the way you cannot spend a day without talking to me?!. After all this you then say, "You were not supposed to fall in love with me, you know we are friends, and I have a boyfriend". Don't blame me for falling in love with you, it’s your fault. What was I supposed to do when you submitted yourself to me?. What we have right now is a Godly non communicated relationship. Do not tell me not to complicate our friendship when it’s already complicated; actually it’s you who is complicating our love relationship. Your word and your heart are speaking different languages. You love me with your heart but not with your mouth. Tell your mouth to convince your heart first before it convinces me. Anyway, you cannot have the best of both worlds, its either you let me go, or you let him go. I, God, am a jealous God. You cannot have a relationship with the devil and still want me close to you, it doesn't work like that. Its either you are his or you are mine. I cannot be a friend with benefits to you. Deep inside you know you love me, you've just had a relationship with the devil quite too long. Now you tell me that I deserve better!. If I should only give my love to the one who deserves it, then definitely I will be single all my life. I do not let go of what I love. Ask job and he will tell you that once you taste my love and accept to have a relationship with me, faithfulness is inevitable. My love and grace are sufficient for you. I will insert in your DNA, genes of contentment, joy, faithfulness and love; till eternal life brings us closer.

I love it that you describe him as a god, flitting like a butterfly, a man, a parakeet, chatting up some "chick" about his size. This is a fun read!

I have a similar need to expose myself on the page; for some reason, it gives me the freedom to understand myself and appreciate myself better. It's therapeutic for me. I've had people ask me about this need. I cannot explain it, but now I do not need to because you did.

Wow! I am so in awe of this poem. You have pointed out something that only you as far as I know has ever pointed out. This rings true in hundreds of ways, and it feels to me like it needs to be shown to someone. That's how real it is, Lawrence. GREAT JOB!
