I Am Yours
I may lack expression, looking indifferent at times.
(But it doesn't imply I am insensitive.)
(I have during some point, worries of my own and unconsciously give a blank face.)
(I do apologize. - please give me a nudge, send me back to reality.)
Maybe my being talented or smart - draws below average.
I do have silent cantankerous moods, I have emotions too;
But they are often brief and dissipates quickly.
...
I may not be a gorgeous person.
Or one blessed with wealth and fame.
Let alone, a career to boast.
But I know that part me that makes me...ME.
I am simply myself.
I have flaws and rough edges.
I make mistakes - but I acknowledge being corrected and learn from it.
Striving to be better, starting from the simplest of matters.
To continue my practice of kindness and patience every day.
It seems it is easier when one acquires more years.
This flesh may have features of decades ahead of others.
Yet my heart remains in its youth.
True I cannot tell its' future.
But I am certain about a few things.
What I need and want.
The need to let you know;
And that I would want you to realize...
...My love is yours.
