Don't you dare tell me not to
fall in love with you--
Curled in your arms, warm, safe,
Reality a mile away,
Those
blue eyes will only suck me in deeper,
Only ask me to defy you...
I've learned not to
trust men
They are fickle and conniving
(Or at least, the ones that I've met)
But you...
You have offered me salvation,
You have allowed me to be myself;
And although I hardly know you,
You've granted me escape from my games,
You've given me headspace...
So now you tell me not to love you?
My eyes say differently...
I am attached;
I love you,
And I can't say otherwise.
