Lean Against Me : Love

written by Poet : EC


May I love you as I deserve?
You would prefer me to love you for you
I know that, but this round is mine
don't expect to find yourself in my love
your mirror-image is not witnessed by my eyes
what they see is not you draped in you
no, on the contrary, it's you, stripped of you

Lean against me, don't fight it
also don't expect to be able to rise again
to lean is to merge, to blend into one
and that one is me, I'm afraid

Allow me to take advantage of you
don't expect my teeth to stay away from your neck
being me, I bite, I even devour
yes, make my day, lean on me and be mine
