Me and You

Poem and Photo by Jenn Marie 

I’m gonna write you a letter

but never send it.
I’m gonna write you a novel
and shove it under my bed.
I’m gonna forgive you
but never let you know.
I’m gonna forgive myself
and forget I did. 

I wanna get lost with you
and call you my one.
I wanna get lost in your eyes
and whisper those words.
I wanna dance on train tracks
and kiss in the rain.
I wanna dance on a dock
and kiss your lips.

Well, do you wanna fall apart
and forget this ever started?
Well, do you wanna kiss
and let our lips melt together?
Well, do you wanna get lost in me
and let me get lost in you?
Well, do you wanna do this
and let me risk it all?

Are you worth it?
Am I, too?
