Love Poem: You

You

At night I dream of you
I dream of your kiss 
I dream of your touch
At night you are all I see
I hear your words in my sleep
During the day I imagine what you look like
Are you tall, dark, and handsome
What color is your hair
What color are your eyes
How tall are you
What do you look like
I dream of feeling your caress
I wonder if you love me
You say you do 
But how do I know that’s true
How do I know that anything you say is true
What would you say if you meet me
Would you care what I look like    
Would you think I’m fat
Or just curvy
Would you think I’m beautiful
Would you think I’m weird 
Or just creative
Would you accept me for who I am
Or call me a freak
Would you forgive me for lying
Or would you hate me
Please don’t hate me
I may exaggerate
But mostly I tell the truth
And I’m telling the truth when I say I like you
Maybe as a friend 
and maybe more
I’m sorry if you don’t like it but this is me
This is the me you could learn to love 
But nothing is forcing you 
You get to decide if you like me or not
I can’t make you do what you don’t want to do
Please understand what I’m saying
I’m not trying to make your decisions
I’m just telling you what I think you need to know
Please forgive me
