don't be an expert lover.

it's not your lovers job
to know everything about you

this would jeopardize
the fuel in which loves depends-
mystery.

you should know just as much
about your lovers psyche

as you do of your parents
sex lives

you know it's there
that it's important somehow

but you wrap it in plastic
and put it in the back of your mind
and hope it doesn't rot

summer love will rescue you.

it's hard to breathe when
the air is so dry

you fight hard to find
a way through the cold (winter)

you should feel happy
being alone

you will always be alone
and when you aren't
you will be laying next to him

having second thoughts
like you tend to do

resenting
what you used to love about him
but not knowing the exact reasons
why
