My facets

My second attempt at writing something...lovely.

I don't know which side of me to show you...

 

I could make you laugh hysterically until you forget you're a human capable of doing much more than just that. Or Iyou could smile delightfully because my honesty pieces your puzzle together into a still life I can't take my eyes off of and places you in comfort you haven't felt when looking into a man's eyes.

 

I could make you think about the sun, moon, and stars. And forget they existed because you're the only universe I want to inhabit. Nothing inside you feels alien to me.  I could tell you how useless a job and pride to be bought is, but console you when this truth gets too frightening.

 

I could tell you I hate you. Only because I've given you the potential to truly hurt me...but I'll trust you....because I love you. And I'll tell you the latter so much you'll think its your name.

 

But I can also cry to you because you remind me of all the women I've ever known: beautiful but harnessing only potential interest.

 

I could kill you, I swear I could, and then kill myself solely because you'd put the fear of god into me when you say goodbye or walk away.

 

I could show you I'm a weak man who only needs you to feel as strong as I'll ever be. Because I could light up the ghost town in my chest that pumps blood with your embrace.

 

And I could apologize for needing you before you needed or knew me. I could apologize for being so tired of love that seeing you drains me of the energy I had just yesterday when I begged me to try for your love more thoroughly than I ever have in my life. And I could apologize for wanting to lie between your legs because its the only place on earth I could attain rest.

 

I don't know which side of me to show you, but I gaurantee each contains the same amount of love and is capable of passion beyond your most vivid dreams and hopeful prayers. I beg you to give me the opportunity to show you a piece of each facet so you'll define love more personally than anyone you know.
