Trust Falls

Trust Falls

A Poem by Tristan E

i've been called a know it all
but right now, looking at you
i'm not sure
if i write this down, i'll write in pencil
but even if i erase i can still clearly see the indentions
because i put way too much pressure
on the poor little utensil
when i fall to you
while i believe you when you say your arms are wide open
you take a step back
my eyes are closed
my arms are out
it's funny
it's hilarious
that's what you think
and since i cannot think for myself,
since i am so intoxicated by your smell, your body
your laugh
i can't help
but let out a little giggle as well
i cannot fathom living without you
even though i have done it for years
i have been searching for someone almost like you
but you're standing in my way
you look like what i've been searching for
you're everything
except love to me
you are a poet
you are a mastermind
you are almost everything i thought i have ever wanted
