Adore-Ability Poem by Lonnie Hicks

'I just want to know how love feels
and no one can tell me'
she said
'I've tried to love someone
but I do only for a while
and I get bored

or I run away.
when I sense they
will one day see through
me
and reject me-
so I leave-
or reject them first.

I don't believe that anyone
who really gets close to me
will really really love me
when they find out what I am really like.'
He said:
'Really like? '
'Well I don't think deep thoughts
and some times guys want you
to talk about deep stuff.
I am not really deep yet.
I will be one day
but I am not yet.

Some guys want you to be easy
so they can get into your pants
and I will not do that.
Other guys just want to be friends
and that's ok.
But they sooner or later want more.

I guess I just don't know who I am right now
or what I want.

I just know that I am insecure.

I know I am insecure
but does that mean
I can't have love?

He said:
I think you are adorable.
