Poem 169 – Because we need this

Vanessa Shields

Because we need this.

Hey, you
Look at me.
Look into my eyes.
I mean it –
Stop what you’re doing,
Come close,
Look into my eyes.
Give me your hands,
I want to feel your grasp.
I will not let go.
Keep looking into my eyes.

You.
I love you.
I love you so fu**ing much.
Okay?
