I know, I know
One is made to be self-sufficient
Independent
Happy in their ultimate loneliness
I’ve been told to be ashamed of needing
Never long for a man, little girl
You can take the world alone
Copy that
I learned that lesson
I’m very good standing on my feet
Could run across mountains and rivers, storms and deserts
Without grasping for air
That’s not the point
Yes, I am self-sufficient
But it's not about what is sufficient, is it?
I want more
Cheer to the ones that stand happy alone
Never longing for a family
Believing that love is distraction
Distract me all you want
Call me dependent
Call me even needy (argh)
All I know
And I know it for fact
Is that I want to share
So blow away the ego smoke
Stop pretending I’m better off on my own
I’m here bored in my single-dome
Often wondering how do you look like
How does your body weight over mine
Where is the meeting place they’ve written down for us
Let me clear my throat:
I can’t wait to meet You
Half of myself, said Plato’s in his Symposium
All humans were hermaphrodite
Cut in gender halves just past creation
To perpetually wander around aimlessly
Searching for their respective concaves or convexes
Bring me my convex, please
I’ve disregarded the description list
I have accepted the damn fate to introduce me to you
Forget the exact qualities
Stereotypes
And close calls to perfection
Reveal the flaws
I have quite a few of my own, too (not that many)
The hell with seeking the right ingredients
I don’t want to know the recipe
Just bring me my meal!
I’m not here praying for surface
I wish for the depth of a parallel universe where two people forget all rules
Land where all Past is left behind
Past that only handcuffs me to yellow memories and shallow longings
I want to move forward
I’m tired of chasing the rabbit through a bottomless hole
I want the fantasy
Where is my teacup?
I just want to share it
