A Poem

If you love someone say it 

I love your written feelings now have mine

What can I do when all I can do is love you

You are an Echo I can here in the silence

You're a Shadow I can feel your presence

It tears me apart it brings tears to my eyes watching the boy I love crawl out of his skin watching you hold tears back watching you stare into a mirror and feel so disconnected from reality from your body I hate that you can’t see the man I do I hate that you have to dress the way you want to be perceived I hate that you feel so uncomfortable in your own skin

When that’s the man I adore so much

You yell at everyday in the mirror

When that’s the skin I long to kiss

That you are ripping apart

When you are so perfect to me

Yet all you see is imperfections

I hate that you aren’t treated the way you deserve

Love

Happiness

So much more than this

I promise you will live to see yourself truly

I promise you will see what I do so soon

I promise you won’t get rid of me

You have been missing from me for awhile

You are what pulls me back to reality now

You are the positivity I see in the future

You are everything to me

And I could never let that go so easily

I will always be here to hug and to hold you to cry and to hide with you to be a positive presence even if depression debilitated my whole body boy

You can’t get rid of me

I love you I always will

Even if you can’t see what I do

You will and that is a fucking promise

Until then I’m here an arms length away

Ready to hug you at any moment
