What Are We?

A Poem

What are we?

A question that makes every man shake and sweat and every girls stomach turn...

What are we?

Hoping that in this DTR something good will come out..

When the question “what are we?” Is asked in a relationship it is asked by one of two people.. of course whoever is asking is looking and hoping for a specific answer

asking "What are We?" hoping that the other will say "we are inseparable" "we are going somewhere"

An answer so simple to give...

But is not always meant when given

Asking what are we is almost the same as asking "Will you Marry me?" It's a question you want an honest answer to

It is not a question you give the answer you think they want to hear or answer the way everyone expects you to

It is not a question you answer saying "we have it all" "It's you and me forever" because that's what they want to hear

It is a question you answer according to how you feel.

would you tell someone "yes" if they asked you to marry them but you don't love them and really you just don't want to hurt their feelings. Or would you ask someone"will you marry me?" just because you know that's what they want but you do not even see such a future with them?

NO.

so do not waste their time and say what they may want to hear, do not play with their emotions because you don't want to hurt them, do not lift their hopes up just to shoot them down in the end

When you are asked the question "What are we?" You must be able to answer it honestly

You have to be able to find it in yourself to say "Yes we are inseparable. We have a future that I want to reach for. We are a couple of people who fell in love who can accomplish anything together. We are King and Queen of the world. I know that I love you and that I want to spend the rest of my life with you. That is what we are. I am Yours."

and if you cannot find it in yourself to say that.. if that is Not how you feel then do not say it. Do not lift up my spirits because it's what you think I want to hear Do not say it because you're afraid to disappoint me, because I'd rather be disappointed with the truth then lead on with a lie that only leaves us both hurt and scared in the end

I do not want to hear what you only think I want to hear. I don't want lies and tall tales I want the truth no matter how much it may hurt. Because darling if my truth does not match yours I do not want us

My heart does not have room for lies or false hope, I do not have the time for you to waste, my heart is not yours to play with.

If you do not want me then don't be with me. If you don't need me tell me and if you find your heart is with someone else do not entertain me because I am more than your side chick. Do not give me a false fantasy.

so if you are asked "what are we?" answer it with the complete honesty of your heart because no one deserves to be lied to , no one deserves to be played, and no one deserves to be brought up to just to be destroyed in the end.
